  Is the latter your mother’s first or second last name?

    First last name. Example:

    Mother: Maria García Perez

    Father: Juan Rodríguez Domínguez

    Their kids can be named:

    Adela García Rodríguez

    or

    Adela Rodríguez García

    Ans once selected and order with the first kid all the kids from the same couple must follow the same order.

      So it’s the mother’s father’s name, or the names of both grandfathers. Still patrilineal

        I mean, if you go that way, when surnames where created in the middle ages it was the name of the man.

        All spanish surnames ending in -ez mean “son of”. And it’s always male names.

        But change has to start at some point.
