Women keeping their last names as in such notoriously feminist paradises as all of Latin America
It's still from the woman's patriline though.
If we had one name transmitted patrilineally and one name transmitted matrilineally, that'd be really cool, and would also not cascade beyond 2 surnames.
No, children should get all their parents' surnames ad infinitum. My grandkids will have 8 surnames. Their grandkids will have 32.
Say what you want, but this system has the fewest edge cases.
Why's it gotta start with you, rather than retroactively accounting for as far back in your ancestry as you can go?
And how do you do the ordering of all those names?
It starts with me because I'm a special boy.
The ordering is alphabetical of course.
You don’t have to go back too far before you’re gonna be mixing alphabets and using altered versions of last names.
Hey wait a minute, doesn't your idea also have this issue? Say currently my name is Al Funky Stuff and I have a child with Lea Johnson Smith, the kid's surnames would be Funky (my patrilineal name) and Smith (my wife's matrilineal name). But my wife's matrilineal name is not actually matrilineal, it's her mom's patrilineal name. So we'd have to go and switch it out for her mom's second surname, which itself is her grandma's patrilineal surname, and so on. So you'd end up having to trace your genealogy regardless of how many surnames a child inherits. Unless I misunderstood your system?
The matriline names would need to be inaugurated.
Jugemu Jugemu Gokou no Surikire Kaijari Suigyou no Suigyou Matsu Unrai Matsu Fuurai Matsu Kuuneru Tokoro ni Sumu Tokoro Yabura Kouji no Bura Kouji Paipo Paipo Paipo no Shuuringan Shuuringan no Guurindai Guurindai no Ponpokopii no Ponpokonaa no Choukyuumei no Chousuke but every part except "Chousuke" was actually the surname
Having names like the ones breeders give to purebred dogs would be hilarious.
