Chowdhury is a common Bangladeshi and Indian surname, particularly among the Bengali people. It is derived from the Sanskrit word "Chaturvedi" meaning "of the four Vedas" or "twice born". In Bengal, the suffix "-dhury" or "-der" is added to the honorific title "Chottopadhyay", which means a priest or a scholar of the Vedas. Therefore, a person named Chowdhury is often considered to be a member of the learned or intellectual class. In modern times, the surname has become a common identifier for people of Bengali descent, regardless of their profession or social status.
