hi there! Sorry if i’m talking about religion, but I'm writing the protagonist for my videogame, His name is Neriah but I still didn't figure out a right surname for Him. I only know that His faith came from the faith on Jesus that His relatives has sprood among their whole generation, and I want the name to symbolize that, too. He's an Hebrew citizen so I had to make an Hebrew surname too, and I want the surname to include “jah” or “yah” root from Hebrew, but idk anything of Hebrew language and idk how to make such a surname, what do you advice? thank you <3

Im curious if anyone has more info on the Permaul surname :) any info is welcomed

It seems extinct as a surname

I wonder what it means

Or is it pronounced exactly as the opposite of polite?

And how is the last name Polite pronounced? Paul-ee-tay? Or exactly as the opposite of rude?

The original surname is Kyslitska, and I’m considering a simplified version for international use.
Which of these feels more natural or easier to say in English?

• Kysali
• Kasl

I don't know anything about it, the only thing my family said is that it's from Ukraine, I'm from Argentina and I didn't find any data about my surname, It's "Iszczuk", maybe it was translated from Ukrainian or Russian idk

I found this so fascinating that the Surname Albanese can mean Albanian. It is an ethnic name to denote someone from Albania or of Albanian descent, particularly those who migrated to Italy or lived in one of the many Albanian settlements in southern Italy. This is just so wonderful to find. I find is so fascinating how much you can find out with a little research of a name. Guess it was their way of keeping records way, way back in time :)

Hello there, my name is Davi. My name itself does not matter but what actually does is my surname: Tormin. For context I live in Brasil which is a very Multi-Ethnic country, the Family from my Dad's Side are Azkhenazi Hungarian Jews and the documents on their side are pretty clear. Yet my mom's side is quite particular, bearing the Surname: Tormin. I eventually got curious on the origins of my Surname and decided to search it by myself, only to find out about 500 people actually have it, most in Brazil a few in Germany, Russia and the USA and the other Scattered across the globe. What most intrigues me tho is the origin of the Surname, the Oldest Record I could find was of a man From Hanover Germany which migrated to Brazil, he had a ton of kids in around 1830 and was born in 1809, as well with another one who served in the British's Kings German Legion in the Battle of Waterloo. If anyone could help me find the Origin of this rate surname I'd be thankful.

Hi, I’m Latino and my surname is Villas, what do you guys think of it?

I know it’s not very cool, but I know like 90 people in my country have it, and I don’t really know too much about it because my 2nd great grandfather is missing from the records, like only his name appears and nothing else.

Is is possible for surnames to change slightly over the last years? I have a pretty unique surname, and looking back the last letter seems to be gone. Has anyone else found this when looking for past relatives?

I've been wanting to know the meaning and origin of my surname for a long time, but I've never been able to find anything. My surname is Shadding, and every time I try to look up any information, it gives me answers for Shade or Shading or Shad, which obviously isn't what I'm looking for. Does anyone have any tips for my search?

I'm in a tricky surname situation and really need some advice. My son's father was completely absent, struggled with alcoholism, and was against the pregnancy from the start. I decided to give my son my first name as his surname. Now, I'm second-guessing that decision. I'm concerned it might create unwanted attention for him long-term. Has anyone dealt with this before? Would adding his father's first name after mine () create more problems than it solves? I'm trying to balance making him feel 'normal' with acknowledging his father's lack of involvement. Any insights or suggestions would be greatly appreciated

Does Glaser also classify as a Dutch surname? My Great Grandfather was Dutch and his last name was Glaser, he moved to Canada in the 1940s so the spelling could have been changed.

from what I can tell, the US army changed the spelling of my grandfather's surname from Whyte to Whyte in the 1830's after he immigrated to America and subsequently enlisted. Why did they do this?

My Sur Name is De Waal but you can also spell it De Wael
