What can your Punjabi surname reveal about your family history, clan, and ancestral roots? In this video, we explore Punjabi surnames, traditional got and clan identities, genealogy, and what modern DNA research can actually tell us about ancestry. Punjabi clan systems have historically connected families through claims of common ancestry, while modern genetic testing can investigate paternal and maternal lineages through markers such as Y-DNA and mtDNA. We look at surnames such as Gill, Bajwa, Aujla, Aulakh, Bhatti, Bhullar, Randhawa, Sidhu, Arora, and Khatri, while examining how surname traditions and genetic evidence may—or may not—connect. But there is an important question: can DNA actually prove your traditional clan? Discover what Punjabi genealogy, DNA ancestry, family surnames, gotra, clan history, and genetic research reveal about the complicated story of Punjabi ancestry across India and Pakistan.
