History:

Manguben: This surnames spread likely involved both people being forced to move and people choosing to move. Forced moves, maybe due to wars or political changes, scattered families, changing how the name was spelled or said. People also chose to move for better jobs or religious reasons, creating new family branches in new places. Exactly how this happened depends on the history and location.

Description:

The spelling hints at a South Asian background, possibly connecting it to various groups depending on the region.

We might see variations like Mangubhai (a common addition in some Indian areas, hinting at family ties). Or maybe a shorter form like Mangub, but thats just a guess. Its also possible to see this surname combined with another, like Manguben-Patel, where the added part shows a clan or caste.
