Brahmbhatt

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Brahmbhatt (Devanāgarī ब्रह्म्भात्त) is an Indian surname and subcaste traditionally related to the Brahmin caste. Brahmbhatt is derived from the Sanskrit roots "Brahm", meaning "to grow, increase"[1], and "Bhatt", meaning "priest" [2] and possibly indicating the subcaste's position in both the Brahmin and Kshatriya varnas. Other surnames such as Barot, Rao, Bhatt, and Inamdar are related to Brahmbhatt.
