But then having gotten ourselves names, we then went onto surnames. Do some cultures just use a first name, or do they all have a family name?
And what about second and third names? Some of them are names that have always been in the family. One of my names is John. (I actually have three), which my father had, as did my grandfather. My son only has the one name. But his surname is double barrelled. Didn't want to make life too complicated for him!
