Newborn girl named Fani in Bhubaneswar
Bhubaneswar: 4.5.2019
A 32-yearold woman gave birth at the Railway Hospital here at 11.03am and decided to name her Fani.
Both mother and baby are reported to be healthy. The mother is employed as a helper at the coach repair workshop in the Indian Railways.
The baby, when she grows up, will surely have quite a tale to recount of how one of the strongest cyclones in India in 20 years with its gusting winds and heavy rains lashed across the state, uprooting trees and electric poles, blowing away rooftops and causing widespread damage.
While Fani took her name after today’s(Friday) cyclone, 40 years ago another Indian baby made headlines. In 1979 Skylab Singh, belonging to a Sikh family in Patiala, was named after debris from Skylab, a space station after it made landfall. No one exactly knew whether it would fall in the Indian Ocean or in Western Australia.
Similarly, last year several couples decided to name their newborns ‘Titli’ (butterfly) after their births during the destructive cyclone Titli that struck the coastal belt of Andhra and Odisha in September. AGENCIES
