False. The credited names now are named your grandfather or great grandfather would have had and respected. Don, Bill, George, etc.

Just give them one that's not impossible for most people to remember and pronounce. Why is this so hard?

Sachin, not Sriyansh, etc.

I just checked a baby naming site for top Indian names, and it doesn't seem like easy names are too hard to find -- e.g., Sai, Sanjay, Kamal, Dev.

Whether they should pick a name that enhances assimilation is a different issue.

I know a Sachin who goes by "Satch" and is basically just a regular good ole boy. The name is window dressing; the attitude and willingness are key.
