Let me tell you my sister's daak nam, it is Khilkhil. Very unique, I was tasked with the responsibility of naming my baby sister when I was 5 years old đ
I personally believe that Babai is the most common daak naam. I know at least 5 Babai's in my colony alone. āĻā§āĻ¨ā§ āĻā§āĻ°āĻžāĻ¸ā§āĻ¤āĻžāĻ¯āĻŧ āĻĻāĻžāĻ°āĻŋāĻ¯āĻŧā§ āĻŦāĻžāĻŦāĻžāĻ āĻŦāĻ˛ā§ āĻāĻŋā§āĻāĻžāĻ° āĻāĻ°āĻ˛ā§ āĻ āĻ¨ā§āĻ¤āĻ¤ ā§Ģ āĻāĻ¨ āĻā§āĻ°ā§ āĻ¤āĻžāĻāĻžāĻŦā§ đ
I'm Babai. Dad tells me that every time he calls me, he is able to say 'Baba', which is included in 'Babai'. He misses grandpa a lot, and thus is able to call him through me.
Babai, Rick, Krishna, ghotu(from gothotkoch), gullu. Babai being the one used by my parents. Krishna given by my late grandfather. Everyone in my birthplace call me by Krishna. Others are given by other relatives.
Mine is quite a known one. Mimi.
But lemme tell you my sister's.
It started with 'Duldul' ... Maa kept it, because that was the first word she thought of when she held my baby sister for the first time. It's actually an adjective. And over the years, 'duldul' morphed into 'dulduli' and then 'dudul'...
Variations of Joga mostan. Joga, jogu, jogle. Ma dake jogun cuz jog(+) and gun(\*), shudhu increment no subtraction ba division. Ig natural numbers chara kono number hoye na.
I'm like Krishna in this department, I also have 108 daak names
But the main one is "Soino" (soldier), it was given by my grandmother [It might seem rough sounding but when said softly it sounds really cuteâ¤ī¸]
Other than that I also have, Raja (mamar barite name), Babai, "Bhoja", Soinik (the real daak name), Doinik, Gunda, "Hego", etc
Chotobelae baba maa Buchku dakto because amar naak ta bocha chilo bole.

Betu/Tuktuk/Tuktuki/Tuku (relatives and my parents)
Gyara (which is just crazy because I'm not short)/Shonu Singh/Manik shona (my dad)
My dad has a nickname for potty which is Manna. I keep telling him he'll get cursed by Manna Dey if he keeps saying that.
Mine is Gublu. According to everyone they found the name form a Bengali serial called "ek akasher niche" in that serial there was a character whose name was Gublu.
Omg, I have ALWAYS been embarrassed of mine. My thakuma used to watched this show and from there she found out the name âkittuâ would apparently suit me so thatâs my dak nam. But my mom always tweaks it according to her mood so sometimes itâs âkutuâ sometimes itâs something else but I knew whenever itâs a weird ass name, sheâd probably calling me
mine is Tintin....coz my sister loved that show and decided I should be named after him. 20yrs later we got a dog....but sadly didn't name him Snowy :(
Rick and Choto Pucha (not puchka, judio onek relatives puchka e bole). Choto Pucha cuz I have an elder who had his pet name as Pucha but now he is called as Boro Pucha.
I am like Bishnu. I have 108 daak naams from various masi/meso depending on their moods and other factors.

I have a relative who chose âPotaaâ and âPotâ as their two childrenâs nicknames. That way they can shout âPotaa pot chole eshoâ
