Ah. Clearly future silk material. Congratulations to the proud paati amma
and pethi (oh yeah and the appa too)

Deepa Mohan [06/05/09 08:15 +0530]:

My new granddaughter (obviously the most beautiful infant in the known
Universe) has just been named Kavya Mohan Shaffer, but thankfully,
Without A Hyphen.

She's the daughter of two Silk-lurkers, but she makes as much noise
(and makes as much sense)  as the third member of her family who is on
this list.

Cheers, Deepa.

My new granddaughter (obviously the most beautiful infant in the known
Universe) has just been named Kavya Mohan Shaffer, but thankfully,
Without A Hyphen.

She's the daughter of two Silk-lurkers, but she makes as much noise
(and makes as much sense)  as the third member of her family who is on
this list.

Cheers, Deepa.

Is this query directed specifically at the Menon-Sens and the Aiyar-Ghoshses?

The best  hyphenated last name in Wodehouse's work that I have come
across is Basington-Basington.

I wonder what the law is in India, and what happens when there's a name change
request after say a Mr.Roy Chowdhury marries a Miss Sen Sharma ..

The british seem to have quadruple and longer barreled surnames in the pg
wodehouse class at least.
