Why Kit Naib? (and not Kishore)
Why I call myself Kit
I am half indian, but I have the appearance of being white (although I tan very easily). In school I was fed up of people mispronouncing my name, not remembering it, misspelling it and asking me why I have a "strange" name.On countless occasions I have been asked if I'm sure that I am the write person, e.g. in a hospital, leading to all sorts of questions about my date of birth and sometimes having to show ID. I'd just had enough.
So, in my 30s I planned to change my name by deed poll. I filled out the forms but never did it. So my real name remains Kishore Naib, but I often refer to myself as Kit Naib.
About Kishore Naib (Kit Naib)
Kishore founded the e-commerce company Watch Shop in 2007 and exited in 2014 after an acquisition by Watches of Switzerland at the age of 34. Watch Shop was a medium sized enterprise (£44 million sales) and was one of the UK's fasted growing companies, doubling turnover every year.
After leaving Watch Shop Kishore did a few coding projects but decided to follow his true and first passion: Lifting and bodybuilding.
