Kakkilaya Family has many Vishnus and Babus. At least one member in every branch is
named Vishnu and one is fondly called Babu.
Vishnu-s: As shown in the Family Tree, the eldest Kakkilaya was Vishnu and the tradition of
naming children after their grandfather has resulted in this situation.
Narayana Kakkilaya, the son of Vishnu Kakkilaya I, named his son as Vishnu. This Vishnu
Kakkilaya II named his eldest son after his father as Narayana and strangely named his
youngest son as Vishnu, may be after his grandfather.
All sons of Vishnu Kakkilaya II, except the youngest one, named their eldest sons as
Vishnu or Vishnumoorthy. And his two daughters also named their second sons as Vishnu and
Vishnumoorthy respectively (eldest sons were named after their paternal grandfathers).
| Vishnu Kakkilaya I |
| Vishnu Kakkilaya II s/o Narayana Kakkilaya |
| Vishnu Kakkilaya III, youngest s/o Vishnu Kakkilaya II |
| Vishnu Kakkilaya IV, eldest s/o Narayana Kakkilaya II |
| Vishnu Kakkilaya V, eldest s/o Subraya Kakkilaya |
| Vishnu Kakkilaya VI, eldest s/o Shridhara Kakkilaya |
| Vishnumoorthy Kakkilaya, eldest s/o Krishna Kakkilaya |
| Vishnu Irniraya, second s/o Parvathi Irniraya |
| Vishnumoorthy Talithaya, second s/o Padmavathi Talithaya |
But the present generation of Kakkilayas have not kept up this tradition. Only Vishnu
Kakkilaya VI has named his son as Shridhar.
Babu-s: And then there are many Babus in the Kakkilaya clan. Babu is the most common
pet name in the Kakkilaya family. Babu literally means 'Pet' or 'little one'.
