In general Lord Murugan has spear in his hand, but in the Neyveli temple he was holding the bow, signifying that he assumed the role of a hunter. Hence, the temple was popularly known as Villudayanpattu Murugan temple. However, over the period of time it had come to be known as Veludayanpattu Murugan temple.
