Help[Facts] Re: Change in Spanish naming law
in reply to a message by Lumia
Thanks for posting. This is very interesting.
Of course, as a resident of an English speaking culture, it seems odd that "surnames used as first names" would be considered "confusing". We seem to get along quite well in English speaking countries turning all sorts of surnames into given names without people becoming "confused" because of it! :)

True, but if you consider the amazing ways in which Spanish people inherit their surnames, adding an extra one to the mix could well be one too many!
