What's Your Name?


“MADH uri. MADH urrrriiiii!!!”

“MAD uri? Like Mad Cow? Is that how you say it?”

If you’ve ever had to repeat your name fifty times to a non-Indian before they could understand it, the daily desi has the solution for you. Instead of reiterating your moniker you can just point to your neck. Yep, that’s right. The kiddies at Limoges Jewelry can make a personalized Carrie-Bradshaw-style necklace with your own little South Asian name.

You can get your sweetheart's name (Amit loves Asha), block letters, and even vertical style. And if you’ve been secretly coveting Ms. Bradshaw’s necklace, get the classic script lettering in gold. Choices, choices!

But if you REALLY want to pump it up, you can check out Sky Gift Worldwide on eBay, where you can purchase a customized nameplate necklace in…. Hindi!! Sky Gift not only sells necklaces in Hindi, but also Farsi, and Arabic. Now you can wow your desi friends and mystify drunk guys at the bar, with your nameplate necklace. A conversation starter for sure.

Eat your heart out Carrie.
