Ajey answered Hindi, "whenever anyone thinks about someone with the name CarryMinati, they instantly think of a foreigner with blue eyes, and then when they see me, they get a little disappointed." He further talked about how in the year 2015, the idea of this name struck him and before that, the name of his Youtube channel was Carry Deol, because he used to mimic actor Sunny Deol in his videos. Later, the idea of the name CarryMinati just popped into his mind. Ajay clarified saying that, "There is no meaning to the name and it's the name of my channel only because a 15-year-old me thought it was a very cool name and I decided to go ahead with it."
