When travelling overseas, I used to be asked the meaning of my name by many people and I would inevitably translate my surname Rajgopaul as Raja for King and Gopala for Cowherd or Cowboy as in the West translating to King of Cowboys. Lord Krishna was the King of Cowherds. Here he is depicted as one along with his friend Balaram, cows and calves.
No, I never wore cowboy boots.
