Surnames Of Dutch Origin
In some cultures, a surname, family name, or last name is the portion of one's personal name that indicates one's family, tribe or community. Practices vary by culture. The family name may be placed at either the start of a person's full name, as the forename, or at the end; the number of surnames given to an individual also varies.

It is common to see two or more words in a surname, such as in compound surnames.

Using names has been documented in even the oldest historical records. Examples of surnames are documented in the 11th ce ...
