नामवर्षक्षेत्रकिसलिए मशहूर
Abbe Faria (Jose Custodio de Faria)1756–1819Priest and early scientist of hypnosisBorn at Candolim, ordained in Rome, and the man who argued in Paris that what Mesmer called animal magnetism was in fact suggestion operating on a willing subject — the foundation of the modern account of hypnosis. He also appears as a character in Dumas's The Count of Monte Cristo. His statue stands beside the old secretariat in Panaji.
Francisco Luis Gomes1829–1869Physician, economist and parliamentarianElected from Goa to the Portuguese parliament in Lisbon, wrote on political economy, and published Os Brahmanes, a novel arguing against racial hierarchy in colonial rule. He is the case against reading Goa's colonial century as politically silent.
Shenoi Goembab1877–1946Writer and language activistVaman Raghunath Varde Valaulikar, who wrote the first modern Konkani prose, essays and drama and argued systematically that Konkani was an independent language rather than a dialect of Marathi. The case he made in print in the 1920s and 1930s is the one that eventually succeeded administratively in 1987 and 1992.
Tristao de Braganca Cunha1891–1958NationalistFounded the Goa Congress Committee in 1928 and wrote The Denationalisation of Goans, an argument that colonial education had detached Goans from their own culture. He was tried and imprisoned in Portugal for it.

Lata Mangeshkar1929–2022SingerBorn in Indore into a family from Mangeshi in Ponda — the surname is the village and the temple. Her father Deenanath Mangeshkar was a Marathi stage singer and actor, and the family's Goan temple connection is why the Mangeshi shrine carries her name in every account of it.
Ravindra Kelekar1925–2010Konkani writerEssayist, translator and one of the leaders of the campaign for Konkani's official status. Awarded the Jnanpith in 2006, the first for Konkani.
