bnm86 Quote \| Reply \|	How to recognise an indian by their surname? replied on: 3/23/2004 7:40:54 PM quote: That's what I see here in South Florida. I think ALL Indo-Trinidadian women are beautiful. Forget beautiful, sexy, gorgeous, regardless of how they've treated me. I tell everyone "Trini women are my weakness". And no matter how insecure I feel around them, I love being around them. Also, I've noticed I have a preference of being around Trinidadians and Guyanese more than Jamaicans. With the bad, there is always some good. I don't know about all Trini women, but I know one and she fits all of your descriptions except the treatment part. And that person is the nicest woman I've met on planet earth. No time...but had to comment on this.

Sometimes, caste distinction seems to govern surnames even more than region, etc... other typical brahmin names include Trivedi, Tewary, Agnihotri, Bajpei/Vajpeyee, Sharma, Awasthi, Tripathi
shalynn Quote \| Reply \|	How to recognise an indian by their surname? replied on: 3/29/2004 4:31:33 AM How about Mehra's surname? Punjabi's name?

FlamingRose Quote \| Reply \|	How to recognise an indian by their surname? replied on: 4/2/2004 1:40:52 AM Excuse...but I am very curious as to where you obtained this information from (I couldn't find anyhting from that site). Since I was very small, I have been curious about the family's heritage...and I finally got a little break by learning at a family reunion that our Indian ancestor's surname was Thomas...and one a doctor. This only leads me to the deduction that they were either North Indian Protestant Christian..or something...but I am not even sure to what exaclty it pertains to...I know that Jamaican-Indians were from the North, but many were forced into Christianity...(My family and I are from Jamaica)... Anything to be suggested?
