Mexico is the country where most Spanish-speaking people live (1). As a result, most popular Mexican surnames are either derived from Spanish or have originated in Spain.
Mexicans inherit two surnames: the first is their father’s last name, whereas the second is their mother’s. This trend ensures that surnames exist for at least two generations. Moreover, parents of the child have the liberty to choose the father’s or the mother’s last names as their child’s surname.
