About KC
KC is a surname of medieval origin anglicized as an abbreviation of Khatri Chhetri in Nepal. With its origin in the 12th century CE, the archaic form of the surname "Khatri" was ascribed as a local endonym for the descendants of Brahmins from medieval India and Khas mothers of the Middle Himalayas in medieval western Nepal. The Hinduised hill principalities of Nepal continued this long-standing social tradition in the subsequent centuries, and the progenies of Brahmin fathers and Kshatriya (Chhetri) mothers were referred to as Khatri Chhetris. In the political history of Nepal, large number of Khatris were Sardar of Gorkha Kingdom and Kingdom of Nepal, and educated Khatri families with linguistic expertise in English, Hindi and Nepali languages were pivotal to Nepal's diplomatic mission in the western world during the 19th and 20th centuries.
