ಗಕಾರ the syllable ga — Every one of these hundred and eight names begins with ga, which is why the list is called the Gakara Ashtottara. The first name says plainly what the rest are doing.
note A namavali is said one name at a time, with Om before and salutation after, while a flower or a grain of rice is offered at each. This list is held together by its first letter, so several names are rare words chosen because they begin with ga.
