Good question. I do not have an answer.
It is a paradox of sorts since my surname
sounds Hindu but I have never been one. For
reasons I care not to go into, I cannot
ask my folks where the name came from.
So, I guess, I just have to live with it
and the resulting curiosity...

Thanks for the lesson in 'harilogy'
in any case.
