Manu Smriti 3.9 says this: "A man should not marry a woman named after a constellation". Now, Swati is a constellation. So, is it wrong to marry a girl named Swati?

3@AmitSaxena, well I'm never able to put manu smriti under religious book category, anything written in sanskrit doesn't means that it is related to hinduims and talks about it. – Mr. K Apr 24 '16 at 9:01
