Ganesh Vad efternamn betyder
Indian (southern states): from a personal name based on Hindi and Sanskrit gaṇeṣa ‘lord of the army’ (from gaṇa ‘army’ + īša). This is an epithet of the elephant-headed Hindu god the son of Shiva. Among Tamil and Malayalam speakers who have migrated from their home states it is a variant of Ganesan. — Note: Since South Indians traditionally do not have hereditary surnames this name was in most cases registered as such only after immigration of its bearers to the US.
