It has been suggested by Sharath19 (talk · contribs · count · global contribs) that this media object be renamed to “File:Malabar Nair woman.jpg” or another more suitable name for the following reason:

Criterion 2 (To change from a meaningless or ambiguous name to a name that describes what the image particularly displays.) · This file was originally uploaded under the name "മലബാറിലെ നായർ പെൺകുട്ടി (1914).jpg"(at the time of upload by user Achayan), which accurately reflects the content of the image. The current name does not align with the original title, and reverting to the original name would better represent the subject of the image
