M.I.A.'s Baby

In baby news, M.I.A.'s baby's name is Ikhyd Edgar Arular Bronfman.

I don't know enough about M.I.A. I have a couple of her albums, that's it. What her actual name is, I don't know, even though I think I've seen it at Wikipedia. I know she's from a different country, so maybe Ikhyd is a good sounding name there.

Recently I needed to memorize over a dozen Asian names. And none of them it something easily explainable according to our normal ways of giving names. But as weird as they sound, over there they might be like Bud or Dick.

"Arular" is, I think, the name of one of her albums. So that must have great significance.

UPDATE (5:02 p.m.): An interesting name just came to me, Grepheld Butter Host.
