Baby 1-4?

I thought maternal name always come seconds and gets passed down by the mom.

So the dad has "dad1-mom1" and the mom has "dad2-mom2".

And the kid would be "dad1-mom2". Not "dad1-dad2"

But I honestly don't know

That may be the case in some cultures, but the Hispanic tradition only carries the Paternal line.

A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.
