Correct! I am running out of names that actually appear in the text. Anyone else want to ask? Or, should we start to make up our own names for the characters?
115. Who was called Jānārdani?
Pradyumna, son of Krishna who was also called Janardhan
Correct!
116. Who was called Lomaharṣaṇi - which should have been Laumaharṣaṇi?
Ugrashrava, was also called Souti
Correct!
117. Who was called Āraṇeya?
I am not able to find this. Anything related to kindling of fire?
Araṇī is the word for a wood-stick used for kindling. Who was born from one?
Shuka, son of Veda Vyasa
Correct!
All I have left are three questions for which I don't know definitive answers.
118. Who was known as Paṭaccarahantṛ?
119. Who was called Vārdhakṣemi - which might be more correctly spelled Vārddhakṣemi?
120. Who was called Sāṃyamani?
Everyone is welcome to try to figure them out, or to take over from me to ask questions about names that occur in Mahābhārata ...
Or, we could make up our own matronymics, patronymics, and exploit-based nicknames for the characters, and see who can figure them out.
