You can guess a lot of information about Nepalese from their names, including their ethnicity, occupation, caste, and place of birth. For example, Gurung and Sherpa are both ethnic surnames and place names in Nepali. However, surnames like Bista and Pant indicate that this person is a Brahmin who originally belonged to western Nepal.
Names in Nepali such as Bhasnet, Thapa, and Pande indicate that this person belongs to the ruling family of Rana. Likewise, Kami is the Nepalese equivalent of Smith, and Shrestha is a higher-class surname.
