I'm on the road, but this made things so clear that I had to write.
I'm not sure what being named after a river in India (or wherever) has to do
with Croat nationalism -- what did I miss the news? Are the Croats claiming
they have title to some land in India or something? -- but I do see a much
more telling genealogy revealed.
Just consider what impact THIS will have on our interpretation of history:
Sarasvati > Haraxwaiti > Hravat > Kravat....
Sarasvati > Sarosvatki > Sorotki > Sorok (!)
Kravat [i] Sorok!!! Mere coincidence? Ha! At last, the Urheimat of the
shirt and tie!! The birthplace of civilized men's fashions! Let's see what
the French have to say about that!!!
Counter? Abject haberdashery!!!

PS - There may be a river named Ko-a-ton-a in Hawaii and if I were the
Croats -- with all due and much respect to the Indian nation -- I'd rather be
named after a river in Hawaii, especially if it gives you any kind of a claim
to ancestral land, particularly ocean-front.
