    Akshar to Axar is still so much acceptable. My name was and is butchered so much even by Indians. On one occasion when I paid my fees in my college, the receipt showed my name as Bharat Watch… imagine if this was on any of my official documents.

    In Gujarat state they usually pronounce Akshar as Axar. Can't blame the principal here.

    I think Aakash Chopra started as Akash Chopra, and he officially changed his name because, numerologically, Aakash was a better name and would help him play better.

    Sportpersons in India do this more often because they generally used to lower down their age to play age group cricket. So when he went to get a passport, the school would have given a new certificate instead forging old documents that are needed for passport.

    In Gujarati Language we have four "S" i.e S, Sh, X, ksh.. So Axar name is as per the Gujarati language.

    Axar in Gujurati is phonetically sounded as
    "Aksar"..hence it matches eirh "Akshar"

    English orthography is bad at depicting Indian words anyway. It's an absolute mess over here. I wish the British made a standard transliteration system for Indian languages while they were here.

      You didn't need the British to do that. Indians could have done it by themselves.
