The affix यञ् comes in the sense of a गोत्र (Patronymic) descendant after the words गर्ग etc.
Thus गार्ग्यः, 'the grandson or a still lower descendant of Garga', so also वात्स्यः &c.

The word मनु is found in the लोहितादि sublist of this class. It ought to take ष्फ after यञ् in the feminine by 4.1.18, how then the form मानवी in मानवी प्रजा ? The affix यञ् comes in denoting a Gotra offspring, but in denoting a descendant in general, this affix will not come, and hence no shpha also. If so, then why the immediate descendant of जमदग्नि is called जामदग्न्यः which is a Name of Parasuram the son of Jamadagni, or why Vyasa the son of Parasara is called पाराशर्यः ? These are exceptions formed by गोत्र रुपाध्यारोपः i.e. by superimposing of Gotra-form on these. Their proper apatya forms are by ऋष्यण् 4.1.114 i. e. जामदग्नः and पाराशरः ॥
