My grandma, who named me, would have never thought of my name to have different versions of spelling when she named me. Yeah...it does.... My friends, a part from my mizo-mates, who call me ‘Hruaii’ do not always bother to know the right spelling and they often have slightly different versions of their own. I actually like them as they are, ‘cause they are dearly written as it is heard. Each has different value. Here are some of which I could remember:
Versions - Persons (who write)
Choi - Moa
Hrauii - Anupriya
Rhuaii - Atale, Avene & Avalu
Shrauii - Rupa Kuamri Devi
Shrayii - Grace &wanda
Shres - Ricky
Sluali - Fanci Dora
Soi/Tsoi - Chitananda
Valnal - Nana & Aien
(for vanlal)
Out of nowhere, one of my lecturers calls me ‘PUII’. I don’t really know what makes her call me by that name; I don’t bother to know it either as long as she favours so.
