    I like it. Very great effort !!! I am from dindigul / Peryakkulam and partially agree with what Sundar said. In fact you can put all the other places calling names in bracket , so that all of our community can understand the various names.

    Example
    Father’s younger brother & his wife – Nannobo & Nannambo (Kakaa & Kakki)

    Note: Kakaa & kakki >> Still calling in northern west part of india .
