from wikipedia :
Rao is a common suffix to male given
names among natives of southern and
western India, chiefly in the states
of Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka, Maharashtra,
Goa, Rajasthan and Gujarat.
Rao is a title derived from “Rao Bahaddur”
and is a suffix for male names (given
names). As such it is not a family name
(surname or last name). However, some
Telugu families adopted Rao as their
family name (surname or last name),
relinquishing their original family
names (surnames or last names), if they had any.
Large members of shivalli Madhva brahmin community have Rao as their surname.
