	Family name - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The second was usually the name of the godfather or godmother, while the third and last given name was the name used in everyday situations.
		It is extremely rare for men in Western countries to take the name of their wives; this was chiefly done in the Middle Ages, when a man from a low-born family was marrying an only daughter from a higher-status family, and was thus designated to carry on his wife's family name.
		A family name, or surname, is the part of a person's name that indicates to what family he or she belongs.

		We can both go double-barrelled or get different names but I don't see why I should be the only one making a name change," she argued.

	GENUKI: What's in a Name, HULLAND, from "The Peak Advertiser", Derbyshire
		The expression "double-barrelled name" first occurs in print in 1848 though it had applied to firearms since the beginning of the 1700's.
		Among such great land-owning classes, their family names were positively venerated since their bearers had, at various times been engaged in shaping the history of our country.
		For example, if a new name was added to a surname under which a Peerage had been conferred, a Royal License was needed - hence in 1795 the 4th Duke of Portland was permitted to add "Scott" to "Cavendish".

		Ok so i know a few of you out there are going to hate this, but I love double-barrelled names, and I am dead-cert that my daughter will get a double barrelled name when she comes in August (due August 23rd).
		I think double-barrelled names can be quite pretty, when they're simple and elegant- but not when they're modern and trashy.
		Double names are fine as far as I am concerned.

	The Surname Dilemma
		We've discussed this and my fiance is bothered as if he takes the double-barrelled name he doesn't want to have a different name from his children.
		Because we're not on the greatest terms with the ex and I don't really want to be same name as her.
		However the other reason is that I'd like to carry on my family name a little longer as my brother only has girls and after that it'll stop.

	Understanding just what at-sign-email is about
		Three names are essential to placement but the pragmatic English speaker is thoroughly wedded to the convention of first and last being sufficient.
		The design of the domain name system is such that saturated (maximum or extreme) hyphenation of any word or words can only take one form.
		In light of this, the domain naming system born in the early 1990s has yet to mature into a modern set of rules that will grant it the status of acceptable English as against techno-babble.

		Use of a bold sans-serif font means you can probably read the name from a couple of feet away, but think what this would look like with a long, double-barrelled name in the same space.
		The convention name ("Intuition") is sensibly curved up, leaving quite a lot of white space for the name.
		It's very plain (more so than I wanted) but it tells you the name of the con, when and where it is, and you could read the names from the back of the room.

	Keeping your name or taking hubby's? - DigsBoards
		So am a bit confused, but basically my aversion to double barrelled names is likely to ensure I keep my current name!
		So, he doesn't want that name, he doesn't want his birth father's name (because he is a big ass, left when boy was very young and wasn't around for a good 10 or so years of his life), he doesn't want MY name, and he doesn't want his mother's maiden name.
		Sweet's name comes from his dad, but he was raised by his step-dad, so he has never felt all that connected to his last name.

	Stupid - the chess variant
		Each piece is given a double barrelled name of its chess and Ultima names.
		- OK, calling the King an Emperor-King may be a bit OTT, but the other pieces are double barrelled just so you can remember the duality of their moves (it's quite easy to forget sometimes!).
		The principle of the game is that a piece may EITHER move as a chess piece, OR move as an Ultima piece.

	Hyphen chic: double-barrelled blast sours name game - www.smh.com.au
		"We're doing an increasing number of changes of names to add the mother's surname and give children a double-barrelled name."

		A double-barrelled name usually labels a member of the cast as a well-off farmer.

		In a few cases both names joined by alias were retained for several generations and so became the equivalent of our hyphen in a modern 'double barrelled name'.
		Once hereditary surnames became established, a change of name might be caused by the inheritance of property from a maternal relative, by a young person's being adopted, by becoming known by a stepfather's surname, or by a number of other causes.
		In a lease for 3 lives, not necessarily of 3 generations, the names of the 3 persons had to be recorded, and it has been suggested that this is one reason why a man would christen more than one of his sons with the same name.

		Hingis barrelled through the first set 6-1 but then dropped the second in a tiebreak before opening up a 5-0 lead in the third and finally clinched it 6-2 with a double handed backhand down the line leaving Nathalie Tauziat, who Hingis' mother calls "the professor", scrambling helplessly to try and get to the return.
		Kournikova was outstanding in the way she played Conchita Martinez, swamping the Spaniard 6-4, 6-0 - it was the first 6-0 set at the tournament this year.
		During that set the top seed became a bit too cautious and did not take chances, but in the third set Hingis reverted to the way she was playing in the first set.
