I found that by just knowing the surname one can almost get to know the state of the person, For example, Bannerji, Chatterjee, Bandyopadhyay, Sen, Sarkar etc., were invariably from Bengal, Jha, Sinha, were from Bihar, Patra, Mahapatra, Sahoo, Dash, Mohanty, Swain were from Orissa, Meena from Rajasthan, Patel, Parmar from Gujrat. Most of the male Gujrati were having BHAI and female had BEN in their names.
