The naming customs of Hispanic America are similar to the Spanish naming customs practiced in Spain, with some modifications to the surname rules.Many Hispanophones in the countries of Spanish-speaking America have two given names, plus like in Spain, a paternal surname (primer apellido or apellido paterno) and a maternal surname (segundo apellido or apellido materno).
Spanish names are the traditional way of identifying, and the official way of registering, a person in Spain.

A personal name, full name or prosoponym (from Ancient Greek prósōpon – person, and onoma –name) [1] is the set of names by which an individual person or animal is known. When taken together as a word-group, they all relate to that one individual. [2]
