Little info I found on my surname on wikipedia. Haha, do you really think it suits me!
Sharma is one of the most common Brahmin surnames among Hindus in India, Nepal and other countries. Sharma is derived from the Sanskrit word 'Sharman' which means teacher. According to Sanskrit scholar Dr. Charan Das Shastri, the word 'Sharman' refers to a universal well-wisher or sublime personality who has achieved the highest state of concentration. According to scholars Pt. Raghunath Prashad Shastri and Yaskacharya the word Sharma refers to 'Srinatehimsayam-dhatu' — the sacred person who eradicates his own sins and those of mankind with acquired powers of self-consciousness.
This was the point when I stopped reading!!
