Nothing in this article indicates why there should be an article about this particular name out of the millions of given names in the world. It's not a disambiguation page with a list of people of the name, it's just a definition which at best should go to Wiktionary, but my tagging it as such was deleted twice, so there's no point in edit warring about it.

- So let's delete Rohit too. —Tamfang (talk) 20:52, 27 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Convert to disambiguation page, as is the case for other pages about given names. Cullen328 (talk) 07:20, 26 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Weak keep (see my rewrite). Most articles about given names may be disambiguation pages, but they usually contain a few sentences about the name itself. This article contains a sentence about the origin of the name, and cannot be turned into a disambig page because there aren't any articles about someone with a given name of Somesh. -- Lear's Fool 11:07, 26 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
