My family belongs somewhere in this group. A few Australians have been confused by my last name which is biblical. Occasionally I remind them that India has more Christians than the Australian population and most of us have biblical names mixed in.

As an aside, I suspect the case was also driven by the fact that Keralite people are generally more aware of their rights given their high levels of education, knowledge of worker rights and socilaist exposure( the world first elected communist govt was here).

Most keralites migrate out to escape the socialist pressure that kills jobs there. Quite ironical that they get out and put up with such cr@p for so long but understandable given the obligations they get into.
