since humans evolved from monkeys (apes), people just left it I guess. and hence no names.

this question, though sounds funny, may have deeper significance.

Hey, its so easy. Aan kurangu is Reflex and Pen kurangu is Prabha. The namings are relative. It differs from people to people. Enna pa idhu poyi theriyalaya. Hey, just kidding. Hope u dont mind. Even if u want to scold me, send me a mail rather than abusing me here. Ellam oru safety dhaan.

Well, I'm used to seeing monkeys IN college :D btw, why the sudden pondering on monkeys? planning to have them as a pet? or planning to get married to one? (I know, I know,, bad one!)

One day in the Garden of Eden, Adam was walking along the banks of a river when he spotted a monkey on a tree. Since Tamizh is the oldest language (sollippome enna thappu), he told the monkey: "Irangu Kurangu". Immediately the monkey got angry and saying "ennaiyaada irangu kurangunu solre, un udambule sirangu vara vazhaikkiren" and so saying he hit Adam on the chest so hard that a rib fell off. From that rib only Evaal (Eve) was born and we have been having troubles ever since :-) So, kurangu senja ubahaaram ithu thaan. All in jest, take it easy :-)
