" I have spent hours on the search engines, trying to find out if any body in the whole world shares my name. I'm convinced that nobody shares my name and i have the privilege of having a unique identity " he says.

It was Duhkhakar's grand father, a man well-versed in Sanskrit, who christened him. He always thought that his grand son was special and his name should reflect it and therefore he go the name.

" I even approached a news-paper offices to place an advertisement, offering a cash prize for anyone who shares my name. However, I was told that this won't fit into any column in the classified section, " he says.

" To make sure that my name doesn't become common, I applied for registration with the deputy commissioner's office but there too I was told that names cannot be patented, " he rues.

" The English pronunciation of my name is particularly difficult and people often get confused putting the spellings together. That is why I refer to write my name in Hindi or Punjabi to make it easier for people. I even have a website in my name, " he claims.

Though still unmarried, Duhkhakar has already started looking for some rare names for his kids. " I have shortlisted a few names and hopefully my would-be kids would like them when they grow up. In fact, my relatives and friends call me up to seek suggestions when it comes naming their children, " he smiles.

He has also applied his name in Limca Book of Records.
