Parents’ naming choices for their children have evolved over time, a trend humorously captured by comedian and writer Srishti Das in a recent video. The video comically illustrates the shifting landscape of common names through the decades.
The viral clip features Srishti Das in the role of a school teacher, conducting attendance with a humorous twist. Transporting us through different eras, she portrays a 1960s-1970s teacher using names like Om Prakash and Phoolmati, followed by 1980s-2000s names like Rahul, Pallavi, and Rohit. Bringing us to the present, Das introduces names like Alia, Kiara, Nyra, and Zoya, reflecting contemporary naming trends.
Predicting future trends, Das envisions that in the 2030s to 2050s, common names will take on shorter forms like ‘Zo,’ ‘Po,’ and ‘Ri.’ Looking even further ahead to the 2060s and beyond, she humorously suggests that names might evolve into innocuous sounds rather than carrying explicit meanings.
