I tried many a times to analyze and get a reasonable meanings of
Andhra surnames. But, I was unsuccessful in many cases. Probably,
few of such surnames may have legitimate reason and meaning. For
example, Vankaayala: people might have got this surname because
their ancestors might have grown or sold "vankaayalu". Then, there
are so many(I mean it) surnames in Andhra. Some of them might have
been derived from caste or sect or profession. But, I still feel
that most of these surnames may not have a particular reason(I may
be wrong). It would be nice if some of our friends come up with
explanations and reasonings of some surnames. NO IMAGINARY
EXPLANATIONS, BUT REAL.

i think you missed my disclaimer. there are a lot of jokes about
kammas which i heard in india and i don't think this is strange coz
there are a lot of jokes on gujju's, sardar's, poles, blondes etc. it
is only the guys who lack a sense of humor (or even sense for that 
matter) make mountains about molehills.

Did he really intend no offense? That is hard to believe. If my understanding
of this guy is right he is looking for some cheap and tasteless entertainment. 
The reason he is posting them is that he derives some perverse pleasure
in seeing other people get annoyed and indignant. The best way of driving
him away is to deprive him of his pleasure, i.e., keeping silent. He will
soon get bored and stop this crap. He might increase the dosage of attacks
before giving up though. If you are showing an angry response you are walking
into his trap.

No flames from here. From what I have read [Too many to list and
might offend some body if I list the source!!] Neni comes from
"Nayuni". It is like O'Conner [Conner wari]. For example my maternal
surname comes from "Papinayuni" which became "papineni".  Most
probably the word "Nayudu" means landlord or a general in the army.
Even today in some parts of AP, landed gentry are refered to as
"Nayudu" irrespective of castes! The Papi Nayudu in question is
claimed to be from the army of Rudrama Devi.

Another of these surnames is "ganti" as in "changanti". My sources say
it means "of chagallu". I wonder where the surname "ganti" comes
from?? Similarly "Alapati" comes from "Alapadu".  I can list several
froms, but I will desist.

As per Reddy, it comes from "rashtra kuta --> Rattakudi --> Reddy".
They are surmised to be from Dekkan area of Maharatashtra originally.

And, as per *REAL* answers, as with any question in socialogy, answers
are never completely correct. It is subject to interpretation.

For all the unasked Q's:

1) Is there an algorithm to decide the caste from the surname? 

A: No. There are several surnames that span across the castelines.
Besides, forms of surnames go across the caste lines. And, no caste
has a small set of forms of surnames.

2) Is the mere mention of Caste mean that one is a Caste-ist?

A: No, he might be merely acknowledging the history. He may not be
thinking of discriminating any person, thing, action or thought based
on the caste it originated.

For all those good hearted people who opposed the above questioning,
your motives are good. Please direct them where needed. Do not chase
red herrings. If some body were to really cross the lines, please
reason with him. And, don't stiffle any questions by presuming
diabolical motives!

PS: When people here ask me what my last name was, I used to say " No,
I have only one name and it is Rama Rao. I have a family name also and
it is Kanneganti. We don't have a last name. In deed, we put our
family name first as per the grammer of the language." Doesn't it make
sense to "Changallu nuchi subramanyam"? Rather biblical I say!!

 XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

    Dear Narasimha Rao garu:   Namaskaramulu.

	 1) Thank you very much for the correction.
	    I intentionally separated "kantakEnaiva" (as you wrote) into
	    "kanthake + Naiva" in my original bulletin to ensure the readers
	    easy reading and clarity.

	 2) I don't know the Transliteration Schemes that are routinely followed
	    and they are cumbersome.

	 3) An ordinary reader out there does not want to break his head while
	    reading the transliterated text in order to get the message.

	 4) I did not claim that I am a pundit of all 3 languages.
	    Please remember something very important.
	    I like what I do subscribe to the net...something intellectual
	    (probably this is too costly of a word that I often use).
	    Some immature individual comes on and makes an offensive comment
	    which causes a typhoon in my temporal cortex, I can not handle it.
	    I could not ignore it then.  Now if it happens.....I will ignore
	    those rubbish statements about my work.  I am growing up sir!

	 5) I don't understand why is there a lot of leg-pulling existing on our
	    Tel(ugu)net.



	 Thanks again for the encouraging words!

	 Gourava Dhanyavaadhamulu,

	 Paranandi Lakshmi Narasimham

My my, aren't we sensitive!! All that I did was to correct Ramana's
quote. And, I wonder why you think it is obnoxious. I corrected it
because I like Mario Cuomo and I thought his speech was excellent and
deserved to be reported verbatim.  If you choose to be insulted where
none is implied, I am not responsible.

It's OK. No need to apologize to me.

more correct quote. I did not even say any thing about that quote
being valid in that context. Your extrapolation of what I implied is

I am technically speaking a indian version of the telugu-form of
ABCD.  i.e., lived all of my life outside andhra.  So, maybe you
will enjoy this incident with your knowledge enhanced !!!

Every year, my family visited our native places of Guntur and
the village of vuyyuru (Krishna Dt.) twice -- 2.5 to 3 months during the
summer and 20 to 25 days in winder (december-jan).

Obviously, we came by trains.  When I was about 8 to 9 yrs Old,   this incident
happened.  Coromandel  express stopped outside vijayawada (outskirts).
It was stopped for quite a while.  Soon, passengers were busy walking over to the
nearby huts adn streets for water and what not...  appuDu, buTTa_lo thaaTi_munjulu
mosthunna oka aamae, kanapaDDadi, maa compartment vaaLLaki. My mother likes
thaaTi_munjulu (TM) very much.  She wanted to buy them desperately, and so did
a few other passesngers.  That lady refused.  God knows why.  So one of the
elderly men remarked ``paassengerlu aDuguthunnaaru ivvaa_kooDada_amma !?!''.

She obliged.  But given that me and my sisters were being fed a daily dosage
of Hindi and english and some samskritam, but Not telugu, relatively, we applied
whatever reasoning capability we had and came to this conclusion -- those
`eateable' thing are called ``passeengers''.  It took my mother a good 2 years
to make us unlearn that !!

Imagine this :  We are walking in andhra and I suddenly point at TM and say
``amma passengers konava?''...

	Great job!  I like it.  Actually there is a proverb in Sanskrit:

	  "KANTHAKE NAIVA KANTHAKAM!"

	  The meaning is the same as in Telugu and Tamil proverb-equivalents.

	  I dont't want to take a standing on the origin of these proverbs.
