Thread Name: Folklore: two first names-no surname?
Subject: RE: two first names-no surname?
the scots clan thing- not peculiar to there.
lots of members of other cultures in the past had only the clan/tribal name only- no personal names.
or they'd take their fathers given name- as in magnus magnusson [icelandic]
