Moazzam Khan says about the surname Bhat word starting from Bhutt, bhut,butt,bhat,bhatti,bhati,bhutto,bhutta, bhatia and so on, represent class of teachers(in hindu religion),those who use to read religious books and teach people were know with these names. bhutt of kashmir and of other southern part may not have the same lineage. bhutt or butt of kashmir are very fair,handsome. with the advent of DNA technology, these things can be determin whether bhutt people living in different parts are from one group or not. DNA test conducted some 12-15 back in Pakistan by some labs in KRL(if i am not forgetting,lab's name) proved that our pakhtoon are the desendents of some tribes migrated from present somalia,first gone to bulgaria and the neighboring areas and then came to the present region (Pakistan and Afghanistan), there are people that from the same family (pujab) one using Butt and the other using bhatti. There are families in Gujrat,Gujaranwala,Wazirabad,Sialkot(pakistan),many bhattis claims to be kashmiri. most of them are of fair color and stong structure, not like the ones resided in different other parts of punjab,sind and so on, with dark skin and skinny structure. I read one book and where-in the author mentioned,both bhutt and bhutti were the sons of Raja Sahlanban,the ancestor of them made the city of GAJ(by raja Gaj)in Afghanistan and in who's name the present name is Ghazni.
