What's there in a name??

With elections round the corner in Orissa problems are mounting for BJD (Biju Janata Dal) spokesperson ‘Jay Panda’. The people who are campaigning for him decided to cheer for him by shouting ‘Jai Jay Panda’. Jay Panda reacted ‘The 2 Jai’s in the beginning are very confusing. It is similar to ‘Sri Sri Ravishankar ‘who has two Sri’s in his name. I’m not a god man or anything; I want to reach out to the common people. Please change the style of cheering’






JAY PANDA ,BEFORE AND AFTER



One of his party members suggested that ‘Jay’ should be removed and they should only have a ‘Jai’ , now it sounds like ‘Jai Panda’. ‘What an idea Sirji’ said another member showing the goose bumps on his hand that he developed due to the sudden excitement. ‘Jay Panda ‘replied that if they chose to cheer him as ‘Jai Panda’ they would sound like animal right activists or the members of PETA who are running a campaign to save Pandas .He added ‘Names like ‘Swan’, ‘pigeon’ etc have been used by that scamster Shahid Balwa . We’ll stay far away from such names’.

How about names like ‘Panda kid’?? asked a prankster. ‘There’s already pop singer Jay Kid, so he would accuse us of plagiarism if we used the same name for your campaigns. So we’ll use your second name and add a ‘kid’ after that. A frustrated Jay Panda replied ‘In that case you can also call me Kungfu Panda’

A sane man asked ‘Why shouldn’t we canvass as ‘ Jay Panda Jai ?’ . People can easily distinguish between Jai and Jay then. Mr Panda said ‘The idea is great , but this sounds more like a palindrome . Reads it either way it sounds the same .The idea has been already used by ICICI, Aviva, Civic, Mahindra and Mahindra .We should be more innovative. Whack your brains guys’

‘Even if I’m on the losing side , my name is at least less complicated and so much more macho’ said Zimbabwe’s wicket keeper Tatenda Tiabu or T square as he his popularly known

Finally, after much thought Jay Panda pointed ‘Maybe I should add a suffix to my name like Jayant , Jaydev, Jayram or something like that. See, this makes more sense’. Another party member suggested ‘Even prefixes work well sir, you can use Sujay , Vijay , Ajay ‘.Clearly problems galore for this BJD spokesperson.
