The name 'tamil nadu' should renamed as 'tamizh naadu'. 'Tamil' to 'tamizh' everywhere.

The Issue

The name தமிழ்('Tamizh')  is misspelled as 'tamil' in English for many decades. We should change this. As தமிழ் has the letter  'ழ்' it should spelled as 'zh' not as 'l'. Because both has different sounds and meaning. If we write 'tamil' it spells like 'தமில்' or 'தமிள்'. It will spell like 'தமிழ்' only if we write like 'Tamizh' and give the original pronunciation. We should start this from kindergarden students and their books. From map to administrative purpose, it should get changed everywhere. It's a small big change that have to be happened. As we give words, letters etc to many languages, we shouldn't get misspelled. As a tamizhar, we should change this.
