Answer 10

You can name your son anything you want, and as far as I am concerned, Sudhir is a good name. I go to school with Poojas, Lubnas, Surajs, Fedis, and a ton of other Indian and Middle Eastern kids and I think it's been such a good experience.

Name him as you please

Answer 11

why would you name your some after a, what I understand, to be a drug lord, or at least one who assciates with the like?

Answer 12

Sudhir Venkatesh is William B. Ransford, Professor of Sociology at Columbia University in the City of New York.

I read up on him. Quite an interesting guy. If you like his Indian name then by all means that is what you and your spouse should name him. With the prejudices (terribly wrong in my opinion) in this country you might want to stick with William. You may still honor him in this way.

If you do name him Sudir, be sure you teach your son why. If Sudir is someone you want to emulate then make sure your son understands the legacy of the name.

Good Luck!

Answer 17

You can name your son anything you want.

It's a very interesting name.

Answer 18

As a parent, it is your right to name your child anything you want to but you really should consider the kind of impact that the name will have on the child, especially as they go to school and beyond.  The name you have selected sounds Middle Eastern and even though wrong, he may suffer injustices for that.
