All the Meetei surnames originated from the seven clans of Meetei. There are altogether 716 surnames in Meetei society (Ayekpam, 1993). These clans have their specified numbers of surnames given below.

The number of Yumnaks of each Salai varies according to the size and strength of the Salais. Ningthouja, the ruling Salai, has 125 Sageis, including Kanghujam, the lone Sagei of Ningthouja Ariba; the Angom 62, Khuman 67, the Luwang 58, the Moirang 67, the Khaba-Nganba 21, and the Chengleis (Sarang Leisangthem) 35. Thus there are all altogether 465 Sageis of the original Meiteis belonging to the seven Salais. However, Prof Gangmumei contended that there is a discrepancy in the total number of Sageis or Yumnaks as given by him with that of Hudson and Ibohal are 448 and 712. Each of these Sageis is descended from a common ancestor, the founder of the Salai (Salai-apokpa).
