My favourite Draupadi, daughter of Yajnasena

Correct!

22. Who was known as Dāśeyī?

While everyone thinks about Dāśeyī, here's an easy one. I know devashree_h can answer it, so let someone else try.

23. Who is most often called Yājñaseni? (Note the short i at the end, unlike #21.)

Would it be Dristidyumna, her brother?

BTW, Daseyi would be Satyawati.

Correct: Satyavatī, the daughter of a fisherman (dāśa), was called Dāśeyī.

Dhṛṣṭadyumna is called Yājñaseni once or twice, but this patronymic is used for another character much more often.

By the way, dhṛṣṭa meaning aggressive is a different word from dṛṣṭi meaning sight.

What would be meaning of this whole name then? Dhristadyumna. Also, Dhrishtaketu would also be related to aggressive?

Answer is Shikhandi.

You're not interrupting, you're participating in an open discussion.

I am glad you like this game even as a spectator, but it's more fun when more members try to answer.

So far, almost every question has been posed by me. Anyone else can think of questions too.
