MK Stalin Urges Newlyweds and Shopowners to Embrace Tamil Names Amid Language Identity Push
In a strong pitch for preserving linguistic and cultural identity, Tamil Nadu Chief Minister MK Stalin on Monday urged the people of the state to give their children and businesses Tamil names instead of opting for English or North Indian ones.
Addressing a public event, Stalin said, “Whenever I attend a wedding, I request the newlyweds to give their future baby a beautiful Tamil name. We are Tamils living in Tamil Nadu — yet we often choose English or non-Tamil names. I appeal to everyone to break this trend.”
He extended the sentiment beyond families to small businesses and local vendors, comparing shops to one’s children. “You consider your shops your children. If they have English names, please change them to Tamil names. Let Tamil words become your shop’s identity. Even if the name remains in English, write it in Tamil script,” he urged.
Stalin’s remarks come at a time when debates around regional languages and identity are resurfacing in the national conversation. Last month, Prime Minister Narendra Modi, while speaking at a rally in Rameshwaram, echoed similar sentiments on Tamil pride. He noted the irony of receiving letters from Tamil leaders written entirely in English. “If we are proud of Tamil, then let’s at least sign our names in Tamil,” PM Modi had said.
The renewed focus on Tamil identity highlights ongoing efforts by political leaders to promote the language not just as a cultural relic but as a living, everyday expression of regional pride.

k armstrong's murder is a sign of why I feel it's inappropriate when fellow savarna (indian) tamils discover #tamilidentity for the first time and get really up in arms about it all. tamil nadu has some of the highest caste atrocity rates in india and the truth and bulk of the dravidian/tamil self determination movement is to break the chains of hinduism and caste. so that has to be #1 priority
