Thank you very much Garg ji for following up on my query. Thank you very much Santhan ji for your thought. Another possibility I feel - it could be derived from some vernacular name (could be Sinhalese / s-e Asia) for the lotus flower / plant. But I am just not able to find any hint on the internet or in reference books that I have.
