“What is your name?”, “All students introduce yourself”, “hi, I’m Mahesh. What is your name?” These were the commonly used statements during the beginning of the college life. But all the information collected by these means is absolutely waste now. Nobody is called by their own names. Some are called by their nick names, some by their short forms and few others by dagalti words. The terror has grown so much that in our class we have nick names for almost all the members. So I and Vijay Krishnan have joined our hands to put the entire panorama in front of you. I will write the nick names of those having Even roll numbers and Vijay will carry on with odd ones along with the reason why they are called so. So… lights on… camera… Action…

Roll number 2: Mr. Arul Prakash a.k.a Urul© a.k.a Baby©:

Mr. Arul prakash is a man known for his villain and hero combined smile and terror dialogues. He was called as “BABY©because roll number 4 and this man burnt the stove due to their extreme groundnuts during lab hours. But later due to the confusion of baby shifting to Dhaadi (refer roll number 30), his name was changed to Urul© which in Tamil means “to roll”. Due to the name similarity Arul matching with urul we adopted this new name. Now he is called “URUL BABY©®”- a name formed by combining both his old and new ones.

Roll number 4: Ms. Baby Ambica a.k.a Maravattai©:

I will not do the crime of once again reminding you people that roll numbers 2 and 4 comes next to one another and 4 were one of the reasons for the nick name of 2. “BABY” ambica is called as Maravattai© after we ran out of options of very small insects due to the copyrights problem of having same registered trade marks. And one more hidden ex reason there for the name which you people can mail Vijay and ask. Vijay I didn’t tell anything da.

Roll number 6: Mr. Boopathi a.k.a Era© a.k.a Aalu©:

Boopathi was called Aalu© during the school days as the acronym for “AAL THOTA BOOPATHI” which was very popular name at that time. But in due course of time the name vanished and this name of Era© was given to him by Mr. Rajesh of infosys. It was due to boopi’s physical appearance and also his food habits.

Roll number 8: Ms.Divya a.k.a Bajju© a.k.a Autograph©:

She was one of the early birds to get her name as Autograph© which she attained due to her regularly wearing the costume of “OVVORU POOKALUME SNEHAs” costume. Just to mention the second name i.e Bajju© I have put it. There lies a so called top secret behind this which I will come and type after seeing super singer.

Roll number 10: Mr.Ganesh a.k.a Kosu (m) © a.k.a Noyali©:

This great bench-mate of mine is called as Kosu (m) ©. (Refer Kosu (f) at vijay krishnan’s Blog). And his second name Noyali© is to signify his resistant power against diseases. He got typhoid, malaria and viral fever which contributed for his one month absence in class and to his hat-trick visit to hospital… (I suspect the doctor…the same fellow all 3 times).

Roll number 12: Ms.A.H.Gayathri a.k.a A.H© a.k.a Thalaivi©:

A.H is just calling her by initials and Thalaivi© is thalaivi only. I can’t tell any single word more. She dances within a plate and we suggested her to dance within a tumbler as her next venture. All the best for it a.h.

Roll number 14: Ms.Janani a.k.a Jana©:

Just a short form of her name. One smaller thing which I heard is that she likes PRASADHAMS which is given in temples… also in colleges!

Roll number 16: Ms.Kanmani a.k.a left©:

She left our college during the second year. So from that time whenever this roll number is called all of us will shout “LEFT” and hence the name for her.

P.S: Engirundhalum Vaazhga!

Roll number 18: Mr. Mahesh Subramanian a.k.a Magi©:

Naandhan…Naandhan. Mahesh a.k.a Magi. Obvious reason. Short form. That’s it.

Roll number 20: Ms. Meenakshi a.k.a Meena© : Refer Swaminathan- roll no-40.

Roll number 22: Ms. Neeraja a.k.a Promise©:

This girl is the worstest fellow ever in engineering history. She has the bad habit of scoring 90% and above in each semester which even though fetches her rs.25000 as scholarship, lead her to do a series of promises during her placements saying she will not go for further studies. Just camphor was missing when she promised each and every time. So promise.

Roll number 24: Ms. Prasidhha a.k.a Chellam© a.k.a 15000© a.k.a Nashi©:

The name Chellam© was kept to her by Bhai (m) (refer Vijay’s Blog roll number 19). But later she was renamed to Nashi© by the magalir ani due to our pugundha veetu pillai’s track. Nashi was an inspiration from Kushi. Here “Na” stands for pugundha veetu pillai and “si” is the suffix of prasi. And the name 15000© is for her winning the scholarship in first year. She is still to give treat for that long back incident.

Roll number 26: Mr. Ragavanandham a.k.a Anna© a.k.a Rep©:

He was our class representative for the first three complete years. So the short form of representative is Rep©. And due to his resemblance of Captain Vijayakant in a family role we called him “engal anna” which later maruvified (got changed) to Anna©.

Roll number 28: Mr. Rajesh a.k.a Rice©:

Rajesh when called at a faster pace will lead to a sound similar to Rice© and so we kept this name. To mention a great thing about this ambitious fellow, he came from Tamil medium and he is proving his best in the exams. His rocking performance in the English training session cannot be forgotten by any one in our class. Keep rocking rice.

Roll number 30: Mr. Sadesh a.k.a Dhaadi© a.k.a Storage
tank
©:

Man of power, man of terror. He is called Dhaadi© because of the most interesting reason ever. If he shaves in the morning, he will be fit enough to get a shave once again in the evening. That’s his capaquity. And yes, he has one more capaquity to store whatever is eatable for 3 to 4 days without letting them to go out. In fact a needed skill during tour days. He is one of the main reasons for us clearing the semester subjects. Our teacher during the semester exam season.

Roll number 32: Mr. Santosh kumar a.k.a Sano©:

Just the short form of his name lead to this call name. Man of intelligence and cat aspirant. That’s why I think he has very harmful nails which are the ultimate deadly weapons which protects him during wartime.

Roll number 34: Mr. Shankar a.k.a Satti©:

Mr.Shankar is my friend from my school days. He is called Satti© from his young days and exclusive reason is hidden as it is a very old information and the researches are going on to explore the original reason for the name. I will not forgive this guy for dropping the five rupees kuchi ice fearing for our PT sir which I got for him and adding to my tension he eppam vittufied near my ears. Panni kutty!!

Roll number 36: Ms. Sivashankari a.k.a Siva©:

Once again just a short form of her name but her friends call it in such a way that they call a boy named Shiva and the entire class turned asking “yaaruda shiva” during the starting days of the names’ arrival in the market.

Roll number 38: Ms. Sudha a.k.a Su©:

The brilliant group of girls shortened the longest name ever possible in world history, “Sudha” to Su©. This would be the first time in world to short such a long name. Many a times this girl doesn’t know whether her friends are calling her or telling her to remain silent. They just turn to her and say “SU” and this girl will stop talking and at the same time turn to them asking “kooptiya?”

Roll number 40: Mr. Swaminathan a.k.a Sambhu_******©:

(Refer bibliographic notes on roll number 20). And for this name Sambhu_******© the reason is his fantastic mail id @ yahoo which at the moment when heard by anyone they either start rolling on the floor laughing or give a wacky reaction.

Competition: Guess those SIX stars after underscore and SMS to 20-40 and win fishing nets and sea foods as prizes.

Roll number 42: Ms. Uma maheshwari a.k.a uma©:

Silence…shhh…and this is all this girl is known for. She reveals her identity only when the attendance is taken. The remaining times we can’t find a clue whether she is present in class or not. Determined girl with lots of late attendance fine to her credit in this college life.

Roll number 44: Mr. Vijayaragavan a.k.a Bajji© :

Just now I called him to ask the reason for his name. To the greatest surprise he himself doesn’t know the reason. When asked to Boopathi (Era©) he says, “Edho vaayila vandhuchu da…adhan koopadrom”. So this is all I got from a phone call of 6 minutes and 34 seconds.

Roll number 46: Mr. Malar Mannan a.k.a Malar© a.k.a Flower king©:

Man of smiles. Once again a person from the short form name club. He is also a member of “En peru Englishla sangam”. So he is also called as Flower king©.

Roll number 48: Mr. Venkatesan a.k.a Annachi©:

He is called so because the first look you take at him wearing a “munda banian” i.e a banian without sleeves, you’ll say that he owns provisional stores in a town or a village located at tirunelveli. So obviously we call him Annachi© which maruvified from his old full name Maligai kadai annachi.

Roll number 50: Ms. Japamala Chackraborty a.k.a Asim Premji (copyrights poda mattene!!) :

Due to this girl’s hairstyle and spectacles and also for the reason she got placed in WIPRO this name is adopted for her.

This post is to make awareness among our class members and just for jolly. If this hurts somebody I apologize. Hope all will take it healthily.
