nama (masculine-name), and (3) Napumsak-nama (neutername). The word endings give the indication about these three kinds of names. (18)
Masculine gender names end with any of the four vowels 'a', 'i', 'u', or 'o'. Leaving aside 'o'feminine gender names end with any of the three remaining vowels ('a', 'ï', 'u'). (19)
Neuter gender names end with any of the three vowels 'am', 'im', or'um'. Now I will give examples of these three. (20)
The example of masculine name ending with 'a' is raya (raja or king). That ending with ‘is giri (giri or hill) and sihari (shikhari or hilltop), that ending with 'u' is Vinhu (Vishnu), and that ending with ‘o’is dumo (drumo or tree). (21).
The example of feminine name ending with 'a' is mala (mala or garland). That ending with oi is Siri (Shri) and Lachhi (Lakshmi), and that ending with 'u' is jambu (jamun or rose apple) and bahu (vadhu or bride). (22).
The example of neuter name ending with 'am' is dhannam (dhaanya or grains). That ending with 'im' is achhim (akshi or eye), and that ending with 'um' is pilum (pilu or name of a tree) and mahum (madhu or honey). (23).
