- One school in Jodhpur has name as 'Doon Woods School'. Now why such name. Are there woods nearby or the school has some branch in Dehradun? No nothing of such sort.
- Another name is 'ज्ञानोदय public school'. Some one should tell them that ज्ञानोदय is very nice name and there is no need to write public school with that.
- 'Oxford Public School', will have no relation with Oxfod.
- 'St Anthony school', Mother Teressa school' are few more examples in the above category where school owner may not even know who St Anthony was or who Mother was.
- 'Prodigy kids play school' is one more school name I came across.
- Icing on the cake is ''Mother Kid's school'.
I am sure there will be many more such examples to share. Do share your views.

क्या नाम हैं?
कई दिनों से आते जाते एक स्कूल का नाम बार बार आँखों के सामने आ रहा था। जब भी नाम पढ़ती तो सोचने पर मजबूर हो जाती कि स्कूल के owner ने स्कूल का यह नाम क्यों रखा? Then I started searching for more school names and I found that most of the times, the school name has no relevance at all. Let me give some examples.

Loll...there's this school next to our place in Bangalore called 'East West Prince Princess ENGLISH School'.
The irony of it all!
हिन्दी में ही पूरी चिट्ठी क्यों नहीं लिखती।
Honestly!
Hakuna, that's funny!
And yeah, that's indeed right. Some school names are really ridiculous. Bluebells, Emerald Heights... But yeah, they they do convey beautiful images!
