Hi everyone, Have you all noticed that mostly all Indian female names end with a vowel- either an A E I O or U. I just conducted a survey on this with all the females whom I am familiar with and most of them have this peculiar similarity. There are exceptions no doubt. But a maximum number of them have this.
Do you also have something like this in common in your country? Please be free to share.

I just started a discussion regarding names and found that you have started one on the similar topic. I don't really think there is something liks starting with vowel.... when it comes to Indian names. I felt that mnay people in India has names starting with 'S'. In my school, maximum number of students had their name starting with S.

Thanks for your immediate response, I did not mention starting with a vowel. I had mentioned ending with a vowel. Like Radha, Divya, Geeta, Rani, Meera, Surabhi and so on.

BTW both of you are exceptions to vowel ending rule.

Most of names based on the ancient language do end in a vowel. Male name or female name. However modern linguistic trends are distorting this rule to give a consonant ending to a name,as in Raj for Raja.
