Talk:Rahul

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I removed the sentences "A similar sounding name of French origin is "Raoul" (French form of Ralph), along with the Spanish "Raúl". It is a very common name in Europe." and "Also the Egyptian God of Sun is named Ra and Rahul is related to that."

Both are not related to Rahul! If there is any connection(which i doubt it) it should be documented.

[edit] Major concern regarding pages which describe names

This page and I suppose other pages which describe names and even list famous and successful personalities having a similar or same name, will be repeatedly vandalised. People have tried adding in their own names, friends' names or any such irrelevant reference which do not merit mention in an encyclopedia page. I request the administrators to either lock down pages describing names, or very closed user groups and societies be handed over the responsibility. --122.163.64.3 (talk) 11:16, 2 March 2008 (UTC)

This happens all the time, and it is just the nature of the project. Luckily there are lots of people like me who hang around and watch for that stuff and revert it ;) That said, it seems like people named Rahul have some sort of problem with this. This page gets a name added to it like every other day. What is it with people named Rahul and thinking they are notable! ha ha haha... just kidding... --Jaysweet (talk) 15:12, 27 March 2008 (UTC)


Buddha's relation to his son rahula is well documented and Buddha left his palace after seeing him. Buddha saw his child and family as last ties that bond him to this world, blocking his search into the other world. See Gautama Buddha, Wikipedia. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 116.68.65.74 (talk) 10:37, 12 March 2008 (UTC)
