patronymic surnames
[edit]- In earlier times, Scandinavian countries followed patronymic naming, with people effectively called "X's son/daughter" .... When people of this name convert to standards of other cultures, the phrase is often condensed into one word, creating last names like Jacobsen (Jacob's Son).
Is there any Scandinavian culture where this name is (or was) written as two words?? —Tamfang (talk) 05:42, 3 February 2024 (UTC)
Japanese, Hungarian, and Philippine Surnames
[edit]I wanna know why Hungarian (European) surnames use Eastern naming conventions similar to Japan,and the Philippines (Asian) using Western naming conventions much like from Europe or perhaps, the USA 119.95.114.132 (talk) 07:53, 11 April 2024 (UTC)
- It's probably from Bavarian (most Hungarian Germans were from Bavaria, then most of them assimilated). I don't know, though, why Bavarians use this convention. 217.119.64.171 (talk) 22:08, 6 September 2025 (UTC)
