    In PI: the naming convention is, one's middle name is the mother's maiden name/ surname.

    If the child is illegitimate & the dad did not recognize the kid, the child takes the mother's surname and has no middle name.

    I have a latina friend whose name includes both surnames of mom & dad, e.g. Maria Reyes Cruz (Reyes is dad's surname, Cruz is mom's).

    In PI, the naming convention would be: Maria Cruz Reyes or Maria C. Reyes (Cruz is mom' s surname, Reyes is dad's).

    Question : are Thai women required by law to change their surname to their husband's after marriage?

    @AO - Thanks for the info.

    In PI: after marriage, the woman can choose to:

    a) retain her maiden name
    b) have a hyphenated surname
    c) take her husband's surname

    Backspins first name is Jacobin. His surname is Rebellion.

    Matthew is a new word he picked up on an obscure website he found searching for new carpet slippers.
