Double-Barrelled Hyphenated Surnames
by mariojacobs | created - 30 Jun 2021 | updated - 28 Jan 2023 | PublicIn the Western tradition of surnames, there are several types of double surname (or double-barrelled surname).
In British tradition, a double surname is heritable and mostly taken in order to preserve a family name that would have become extinct due to the absence of male descendants bearing the name, connected to the inheritance of a family estate.
If the two names are joined with a hyphen, it may also be called a hyphenated surname.
Which is your favorite actor/actress (or celebrity) with a double-barrelled hyphenated surname?
