(1) Gunvaan - Qualitative, Principled person
(2) Veeryavaan - Mighty, Potential one
(3) Dharmagya - Conscientious
(4) Kritagya - Obligation feeling
(5) Satyavaadee - Who has the habit of speaking truth

(7) Charitravaan - With good conduct
(8) Sarvbhooteshu Hit - Who wishes good for everybody
(9) Vidwaan - Learned
(10) Samarth - The ablest one
(11) Priyadarshan - Godly in look, good to look at
(12) Aatmvaan - Courageous
(13) Krodhjit - Who has controlled his anger
(14) Dyutimaan - Brilliant one
(15) Ansooyaa - Who is not jealous with anybody
