Spanish baby names
Updated: April 9th, 2024
According to the Spanish naming tradition, a baby name consists of a given name followed by two surnames. Usually the first surname is derived from father's first surname and the second one is derived from the mother's first surname.
Spanish given name is a composite which means it consists of two (or more) single names. For example, the name “Juan Pablo” is considered as a single composite forename. Since 1999, surname transposition has been allowed in Spain due to Spanish gender equality law. According to this law, each sibling must carry the same surname order recorded in the Registro Civil. Since June 2017, it is not mandatory to adopt the paternal name first and for this, Spanish parents are required to sign an agreement wherein the name order is expressed explicitly. Spanish surnames can also be composite, but the parts are generally linked by the conjunction y or e, by the preposition de or by a hyphen.
