Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Khan is a surname and title of Asian origin. It can have one of several connotations, all related in some capacity to the title of Khan, which originated in Turkic and Central Asian traditions and was thereafter historically granted to Muslim rulers. Infiltration of the name from central Asia happened with the coming of Pashtuns into the sub-continent who used this name as a tile as well as a suffix to indicate their ethnic identity. The later Turks and Mughal invaders also brought the name with them. Later Muslim Rajput rulers won the title Khan as a suffix upon accepting Islam. Baloch tribes in Balochistan and in Sindh; Northern Iranian Turkic tribes; Subcontinental musicians; Sudhans of Kashmir; Krrals, Dhunds and miscellaneous tribes in northern Asia have all taken on this name without any historical or other justification. It is though generally used as a shorthand name for Pashtuns and Pathans throughout the South Asian subcontinent.
