Before now. Surname use to be unique and identity to a clan. People doesn’t share same surname in a past ethnic or tribe. And that’s why when the surname is mentioned people can easily identify the clan.

But its seems that do not work anymore because you will be so surprised with someone surname to yours and they are from another place far from yours.

And besides how old is your surname. 5 generation or 10?

Some people don't know what historical damage they are doing to themselves and immediate offspring by this recent willful disposal of ancestral name.
