“What’s in a name? That which we call a rose by any other name would smell just as sweet.” William Shakespeare penned this line in his tragedy Romeo and Juliet. It simply means that names are irrelevant. I don’t agree with him.
I feel that our names are our first identity. We are our name first and, only then, whoever or whatever we are or do. And since we have a name, it becomes imperative for us to ensure that it is used properly and with the correct spelling because a misspelt name could be that of someone else.
My name is (and is correctly spelt as) Vijay Shekhar.
