This is a very difficult question. I never thought about it. Because I don’t have any objection to my name. My name is Jyoti. My parents must have named me this with a lot of love. No one names a child just like that. And the meaning of my name is also understandable to all. Jyoti means light. Still if someone asks me what my new name would be, I would say that I like the name “Diya”. Deeya means earthen lamp lit with wick and oil. Because firstly this name is very short. And its meaning is similar to my name. The work of a diya is to remove darkness from life with light. Diyas are a symbol of goodness and purity and lighting them means removing darkness and moving towards light which represents knowledge, prosperity and wisdom.
