    Amul is synonymous with goodness; isn't it ?

    There are diminutives that designate a small specimen of a thing or object. Many of the diminutives are formed by adding suffixes like -et, -let, -ette and -ling.

    I added the "let" suffix to Amul, to be modest and say that I am only a little goodlet now, before I get really really good like Amul.

    My username was too long lol. I had to condense it and name it unique. So with the frustrating of trying to create an account, I came up with what I have now.

    No story behind it. Real name with year of birth lol

    @Amica, the other choice was Omlet, written as ॐlet , ;) a dish made from eggs while meditating, or a "little bit" of the essence of the ultimate reality, consciousness, or Atman.

    It is (part of) an email ID given to me (based on my designation) at my office at New Delhi a few decades ago, which I find it convenient to continue even now.
