Hi, Does anyone know the ethnic origin of the surname Saxena?

It's not listed on the few sites I clicked on so if anyone has a link where I could find it that would be great.

Thanks!...s

It's Indian, but I don't know the meaning. I have note that people of this surname belong to the Kayasth, i.e. Writer caste. Try doing a websearch with saxena and kayasth, it may produce something.

You mean from India. Just one Saxena lives in Italy too. And some perhaps in France see: LA FRANCE DE VOTRE NOM site.

Yes, India. I assume that these individuals are immigrants or descendants of immigrants.
