You can see it from the "a" in Teja. Isn't valid for all indian names, but for most. If one is familiar with the language, rules such as that may be adequate, but not always. In English "Chris" may be Christopher or Christine. "Billy" may be male or female. I know a woman named Daryl (no, not the female movie star with that first name) and I went to high school with a girl named Johnnie. One never knows, so Jan's suggestion might save unexpected embarrassment. Come to think of it, "Jan" could be either gender :-) |
