You remember the line from Bharathiyar song 'oLi padaitha KaNNinaai vaa vaa vaa' or 'suttum vizhi chudardhaan kaNNammaa sooriya chandhiraro'
Chudar also means flame, brilliant or sooryan. Chudarvizhi means oLi padaitha kaNN. Or one with bright eyes.

annam means both food and swan. I think chakravaakam is the one to die along with its 'jodi' and annam is the one that can separate milk and water. andril is mentioned in literature. Whether it still exists or is extinct I don't know.

I named my daughter as ' Ezhil Malar' a very beautiful thamiz name :D . Then, I was transferred to Nagpur & we were there for 15 years. My daughter completed her entire education there in Nagpur. Everyone used to call her '' Yeszkil Malhar'' :( . Many tim;es she was listed among the boys and all concluded firmly that we are christians :cry: . Recently, she got a job in a good shoftware company so we took her to Mumbai. The company arranged her stay in a star hotel. After reaching there we found to our dismay that she has to share her room with another boy :x :oops: .
