What is the origin story of the name 'Hemadpant' as it relates to the author of the Sai stories?

The author, whose name appears as "Hemadpant" at the end of each chapter, was not given this name at birth. Chapter 2 explains that the author promises to tell the story of this naming ceremony to satisfy the reader's natural curiosity. He acknowledges that he was initially "mischievous, talkative, cynical, and critical," with a mind prone to argumentation. The narrative of how he received the name Hemadpant is presented as a sub-story within the larger life story of Sai Baba. This explanation is offered so that listeners can understand who this "Pant" is and appreciate the appropriateness of the name, which itself is considered an inspiration from Sai.
