	I apologize in advance for my severe lack of knowledge about India. I am researching the surname "Nanuwa". Can anyone provide me with an etymology of this name? Thank you!

	Structure of Hindu Society By: Nirmal Bose & District Census of West Bengal (1981) Nanuwa (Nanua/Naniya/Nuniya) have origins in Bengal and are found amonst mostly Muslims and even few Sikhs (probably migrants to the punjab in recent times within 300 years). In West Bengal they numbered around. The Sikh Nanuwa associate themselves with Saini and Banwait.

	No problem, if I may ask, why did you inquire about this particular surname? Its actually quite amazing to find the same clan all the way out in Punjab.
