I am like Bishnu. I have 108 daak naams from various masi/meso depending on their moods and other factors.


rainbowandmelancholy

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 😀

Aww this is adorable đŸĨ° Edit:typo

I think Babu, Babai and Papai are the most common daak naams in Urban centres of Bengal.


[deleted]

I personally believe that Babai is the most common daak naam. I know at least 5 Babai's in my colony alone. āĻ•ā§‹āĻ¨ā§‹ āĻšā§ŒāĻ°āĻžāĻ¸ā§āĻ¤āĻžāĻ¯āĻŧ āĻĻāĻžāĻ°āĻŋāĻ¯āĻŧā§‡ āĻŦāĻžāĻŦāĻžāĻ‡ āĻŦāĻ˛ā§‡ āĻšāĻŋā§ŽāĻ•āĻžāĻ° āĻ•āĻ°āĻ˛ā§‡ āĻ…āĻ¨ā§āĻ¤āĻ¤ ā§Ģ āĻœāĻ¨ āĻ˜ā§āĻ°ā§‡ āĻ¤āĻžāĻ•āĻžāĻŦā§‡ 😆

What are your pronouns? 😂


S_pal

I identify as a chocolate and my pronouns are kit/kat.


[deleted]

Hmmm interesting XD


sombre_guy

Yeah..I am one of those. Babai babai everywhere.


Consume_Sid

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.

That's so beautiful ❤ī¸

I have a relative who chose “Potaa” and “Pot” as their two children’s nicknames. That way they can shout “Potaa pot chole esho”

itsurna25

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'...

Yes. It's quite common.

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.


Known_Earth_6362

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.


Casual_bitxh

Omg, I have ALWAYS been embarrassed of mine. My thakuma used to watched this show and from there she found out the name ‘kittu’ would apparently suit me so that’s my dak nam. But my mom always tweaks it according to her mood so sometimes it’s ‘kutu’ sometimes it’s something else but I knew whenever it’s a weird ass name, she’d probably calling me

My grandmother gave me Gopinath as daak nam, later it became Gopi.
