indra's surname is ootsuki or uchiha?

[the entire forum]

why his descendants surname is uchiha?

He turned against the Sage's chosen heir, and next clan head so I doubt that they kept him as part of the clan. In a symbol of his rebellion he might have changed his name from Ootsuki and taken up the name Uchiha.

Indra surname is Ōtsutsuki. He is from the direct line of Ōtsutsuki. He is the son of Hagoromo Ōtsutsuki, also known as the Sage of Six Paths. Uchiha are descendants of Indra. The Uchiha would have to be sons of Indra to be from the direct line. If the Uchiha were from the direct line, than their surname of Uchiha would change to Ōtsutsuki.

Note: Surname is the last names or family names, as well as famous bearers and usage statistics. Descendants are from a specific ancestor; an offspring.

That's a highly probable scenario.

Or his offsprings only had daughters and had to change to uchiha
