Sinhala aristrocat families do have their name ending naike's ( Bandaranayake, Senanayake,etc.). The last king of Sri Lanka ( real name Kannusamy) was of Nayake Dynasty from Rameshwaram. The language spoken in the palace was Tamil. The document he signed was in Tamil. Surely, the descendants of their families/relatives must have remained in Kandy. So are these sinhalese are Nayakkars? So is Vaiko and Chandrika are of the same caste?
