It's an Indian name and I'm pretty sure Mythili Rao is his sister. Does anyone know?

EDIT: nvm, this confirms it for me: https://archive.fo/3PYgG

That account is Arun G. Rao on "Capitol Hill, Washington D.C." and is constantly in communication with Mythili; https://archive.is/aM6hf

I did a reverse image search on that twitter profile pic and got a bunch of old 4chan threads, which also included this gem:

Also Caris is a very rare and strange name, could be code for Ceres, a Greek legend about how a daughter was traded between her mother and the god of the underworld...

Ceres was the sister of Jupiter, and Proserpine was their daughter. Proserpine was kidnapped by Pluto, god of the underworld, to be his bride. By the time Ceres followed her daughter, she was gone into the earth. Making matters worse, Ceres learned that Pluto had been given Jupiter's approval to be the husband of his daughter. Ceres was so angry that she went to live in the world of men, disguised as an old woman, and stopped all the plants and crops from growing, causing a famine. Jupiter and the other gods tried to get her to change her mind but she was adamant. Jupiter eventually realized that he had to get Proserpine back from the underworld, and sent for her. Unfortunately, Pluto secretly gave her food before she left, and once one had eaten in the underworld one could not forever leave. Proserpine was therefore forced to return to the underworld for four months every year. She comes out in spring and spends the time until autumn with Ceres, but has to go back to the underworld in the winter.

Remember that "Caris" is James' god-daughter?

it's definitely an Indian name, of Hindu/Jain background, not Muslim.
