[Opinions] Tsunami???
What on earth were they thinking of there? That's like naming somebody Earthquake or Cyclone.

I have no idea! My friend doesn't know either. It's particularly strange when you consider the family's first language is Bengali. She was born before the Boxing Day Tsunami of 2005 (I think she's about 11 now) but suffered a lot of teasing from kids at school.The thing is, although it is a very unusual name, I'm totally used to it now because I hear my friend talk about her so much (and have met her a couple of times). I guess that happens with a lot of unusual names. After a while you just associate the name with the person.
