Thank you.
Trichur name coined by British who were unable to pronounce most of Indian names;
Thrissur - called by natives.
Originally it was called as ‘Thrisivaperur’.
Almost all big temples are called as ‘Parasurama (Rishi / Avatar) Kshetra’ (temple) because he built many temple. It is he who reclaimed land from sea and donated to Kshatriyas.
See the name board in Thrissur Railway Junction written Malayalam.
