A lot of these are older names - like people who are 35-50 years old now. [/quote]

Not the person who posted this, but I don't think this is true.   I know kids under the age of 5 with most of these names.[/quote]

You must know a lot of Indian kids.  But seriously - you know a kid under 5 aged Rajiv?[/quote]

LOL!  My 4 month old was almost named Rajiv. We went with another variant on Raj instead.  Had no idea it couldn't be used anymore??[/quote]

So, I think the difference is that those of raised here in the US know the older names because those are the names we've grown up hearing (Rajiv is like Michael/Matthew), but we are not as aware of the newer names in India.  I had only heard of maybe 2 or 3 of the names on the 2013 list:  http://www.babycenter.in/l25008325/top-10-indian-boy-names-of-2013#/0

OP - that's a good source of names, I actually really like some of them.[/quote]
