[Dinesh Valke]

Yes Usha di, dried pods of this one and most of other Crotalaria species have earned the generic name of rattlepod (with some descriptor to differentiate among species) - alludes to rattle toy; rattle when shaken.

The vernacular names too, aptly, are rattle toys in each language ... झुनझुनिया jhunjhunia (HINDI) • ಗಿಜಿಗಿಜಿ ಗಿಡ gijigiji gida (KANNADA) • भाट घागरी bhat ghagari (KONKANI) • കിലുകിലുക്കി kilukilukki, കിലുകിലുപ്പ kilukiluppa (MALAYALAM) • भाट घागरी bhat ghagari, खुळखुळा khulkhula (MARATHI) • கிலுகிலுப்பை kilu-kiluppai (TAMIL) • గిలిగింత giliginta (TELUGU) • ಗಿಜಿಗಿಜಿ ದೈ gijigiji dai (TULU)
