What sort of a name is "Suri"??


Must not laugh!! TomKat (Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes for the uninitiated) name their child "Suri".

According to the BBC
Suri means "Red Rose" in Persian and "Princess" in Hebrew.

Well it also means Knife in Marathi and fat hairy Sardar in Punjabi. It reminds me of a guy in Madison with that name, and many Punjabi sardars with that last name. Oh yes my Punjabi neighbours in Pune were the Suris.

My good wishes to Suri, unforunately she inherited some cookie parents. Hope she comes out of that house unscathed.
