Is it possible that there are no Spanish surnames because, the 'few' Spaniards perhaps had out-of-wedlock relations with the local damsels, which resulted in some births?

This happened in Jewish communities in ancient, and perhaps not so ancient, times, when they were conquered, pillage and the other thing.
