So?
My mother has two last names.
She Divorces my dad, her original last name was Lester, but when she married my dad it was brown.
But when she signs her name today, its always Lester Brown.

Interesting...Well, now I know. I've never met someone with 4 different names, albeit, in Spy Kids, Juni and Carmen both had more than one Middle Name. That's the only thing I can think of.

Unless you are talking about Christian/given/first names?

In Spain we all have two last names, the father's last name and the mother's last name.
And I happen to have two first (given) names too (or rather a composite name) XD

Wait. If a persons last name is a combination of his/her parents' last names, how do you choose which last names are given to the children? I assume you can only have two last names, but if your parents both already have two last names... :?
Is there are rule for this?

In Finland, kids are given only one last name, it can be the mother's or the father's. When you marry, you can either keep your own last name, take your spouses last name, or combine the last names. However, the kids can't take the combined last name.
