Interesting idea

The source reveals, "Sanjay's S is symbolic of a folded cloth and means a stubborn person. A is for eagle, N for water, J for snake and Y for two reeds (reeds mean freedom or hard to control). while the D in Dilnashin stands for hand and means very lucky and peaceful. I stands for lion that means strong character or a person with leadership qualities. The L stands for feather which means honesty."
