Names can be complicated. Even when it’s in your mother tongue, sometimes names are just complicated to pronounce. But nothing beats having a name that rhymes with Covid.
Technically, this dude’s name is Kovid, which to us, doesn’t rhyme with Covid. द and ड, of course! But for people outside India, the distinction is irrelevant.
Went outside India for the first time since COVID and got a bunch of people amused by my name. 😂

Future foreign trips are going to be fun!
This tweet has now gone viral. Kovid has also shared quite a few incidents where his name was ‘confused’ with the plague.
