The story of the Vishwanath surname

Vishwanath is a Hindu given name and surname used across India. It can appear among Sindhis, but it does not identify a Sindhi nukh or caste without another clue. The archive should ask for the older surname, family town, and whether the name is a first name, father’s name, or actual inherited surname.
