Persona

My love of India spans many time periods and geographic locations.
Saraswati has multiple meanings depending on the angle in which you approach the reading of the name. Saraswati is the goddess of knowledge in the Hindu Pantheon, and man.Ikkam which translates to ruby, indicates a servant of the temple. It would not necessarily have been the name she was given at birth. As such a temple woman, she would have been taught to read and write, and would have had extensive tutelage in the finer arts.

There are only 3 Saraswatis registered with the College of heralds on a simple search.

Heraldry: Azure, a lotus blossom in profile Or and a bordure quarterly Or and argent.
