Banthrongsack, Bhattacharya, Danneskjold, Kozhikal
I came across these names in the phone book one day. Does anybody know the origins & meanings of these names ? Banthrongsack, Bhattacharya, & Kozhikal look like they would be Hindu. Danneskjold looks like it would be Danish, Dutch, Finnish, Swedish, or Norwegian.
What are the origins & meanings of these names ?
