Hello @Richa Sharma!

That's great! 

Well, my name came directly from the legend of King Arthur or Artur. 

Celtic Root (artos): The most widely accepted etymological root means "bear". Over time, scholars built derivatives such as Arto-uiros (bear-man) and Arto-rīg-ios (bear-king).

My older brother chose this name for me after watching the classic Disney film The Sword in the Stone. I love this animation even nowadays.

My name, Phaneendra, has its roots in Sanskrit. It is often interpreted as "Lord of Serpents" or "King of Serpents," with connections to Shesha (the divine serpent) in Hindu mythology.

Growing up, I didn't think much about the meaning, but over time I've come to appreciate the cultural and historical significance behind it. It's always interesting to learn the stories behind names and how they connect us to our heritage.

Thanks for starting this discussion looking forward to the replies.

Julian Gemma was an Italian actor who became world-famous as one of the greatest heartthrobs and heroes of Spaghetti Westerns (those classic Italian Westerns) in the 60s and 70s, and who continued to appear frequently on Brazilian TV in the 80s and 90s.

He was the guy who played vigilantes, fearless cowboys, and acrobatic adventurers (he even did his own stunts because he had been an athlete). Films like *The Dollar with a Hole* and *A Pistol for Ringo* were frequently shown in cinemas and on television.

Before I was born, my parents couldn't decide on a name and after I was born, I was just 'baby' for 3 days until they decided to name me after my Dad.  
Growing up was really confusing sometimes as we'd always be confused on who my Mum was after. 😅

My family recently welcomed in our first nephew and my brother gave him my dad and I's name as a middle name.  So it was really nice of him to do that. 

Unfortunately I don't really have a cultural meaning behind my name but a somewhat unique story.
