Hahaha, I have 7 Abhisheks in my contact. And the way people are naming their kids, I guess in future, Karan and Adityas would be next Abhishek :D

I have mixed feelings about being dethroned from the most overused name title. Is it Stockholm Syndrome now? 😂

Haha, as a fellow Abhishek, I totally get it! I couldn't use my name as a username on almost all sites/games so I eventually just gave up and accepted my fate, loved reading it and will definitely share with other Abhsihek's in my friend circle since we all suffer together in this struggle.

Naah! The way we are addicted to phones and computer screens, it can come way early. Moloya, if this is what you're referring to, your body is already in your 30s.

Many congratulations😂

Had fun reading something not about economy, productivity and anything serious (not that I don't take the pain of finding a unique username seriously).

Also, who knew that the basic stuff hurts so much! If this continues I'll end up creating a support group for folks with common names xP
