Legacy of the name Vj

I was born and there was a quarrel between my dad and my grandmother regarding naming me. My dad suggested a name “Vijay”, because its stylish,. But my grandmother wanted to name me as “Ganesh” because I was sick while born and was incubated for 3 days, so she prayed to Lord Ganesh (Hindu God) and that’s how I got a name “Vijay Ganesh”. But then after I grew up and came to college, I was making friends around the world through internet and also I was so crazy about music.

I made many online friends from different countries, one from Canada, two from America, London, France, and even from China and recently from Austria. I always dreamed to be a world citizen and a musician. I was inspired by many Musicians,. One day while I was chatting through voice with my friend Jay (Sorry for calling you friend Jay bro) ,. Now he is more close as a relative to me,. He said that most of Indian names are difficult to pronounce but my name is very easy to pronounce,. He gave me the name “VJ” and I was happy about it. And since the name more resembled to the pattern MJ(Michael Jackson) and EJ(Elton John) I then changed my orkut name and email id such things and even my friends started calling me Vj.
