Sandrokottos!!

Hi,

Here goes the first line in my blog which I named "Sandrokottos!" I tried to give my blog a name that can reflect the contents in it or gives the inside view of the author or about the ambitious thoughts of the author.

Thought of naming it "The Ambitious", "The Committed" or "The Aquarian", some point of time, thought of calling it "Corporate Classics" (since this blog will surely have the reflections of some corporate culture that I am embedded into). I even published my blog with the name "The Unknown!" but couldn't succeed as there was already one!

At one point of time thought of having the French, the Latin, the German or the Sanskrit equivalent of any word that describes me the most. I never got one. There were some names that popped up like Sandrokottos, Sandrokuptos, Androcottus which are the Greek and the Latin names of Chandragupta Mourya the first genuine emperor of India. I decide to call it "Sandrokottos!"

Friends who know me should have suggested that I go by my long term favorite "Dreams!" But this famous quote from Shakespeare's play "Romeo and Juliet" crossed my mind where Juliet says ""What's in a name? That which we call a rose by any other name would smell as sweet."!

Sandrokottos.
