Imam Din
Ramzana
Yousaf
Papoo (dalit, female)
Muccho (dalit, female)
Bharucha (surname)

Let me try. I can't guarantee that these are correct. May be some others can confirm / correct them?

Adi (Parsi character, male) अडी
Himat Ali हिम्मत अलि
Imam Din इमाम दीन
Ramzana रमज़ाना
Yousaf युसुफ़
Papoo (dalit, female) पापू
(if it had been a little boy, it would be पप्पू)
Muccho (dalit, female) मुच्छो
Bharucha (surname) भरूच्चा
Hamida हमीदा

Shalmi, Gowalmandi, Mozang Chungi (places in Lahore)
शल्मि, गोवलमन्डि, मोज़ंग चुंगी
(I am not sure about these places in Lahore. I never heard of them)

I hope this helps.
