I am happy with the order of my last names, and if I do not use the second much, it is basically to end before, not because it seeks to make the void.I would have earned me any of the two first options, because with permission from López or Fernández, joy of some more exclusivity.But if I wanted to alter order, I wouldn't mean, I think, no family schism.Being of legal age, my decision would not splash anyone else.Or yes (I explain later).It would be enough to go to the registration with the birth certificate and the register, and request a change of order.
But if the nominal restlessness is generated before completing the 18, it is already another song.For 20 years, and to avoid the loss of a large number of maternal surnames, the law allows you to choose the order as long as the parents agree.If not, I already anticipate that the judge of the registration decides by draw.This is the first child, because in case there is already a firstborn, the order chosen then must be respected.But suppose that parents agree that children take the "traditional" order, but over the years, due to family circumstances, the mother is threatened and runs risk of disappearing, and decide to change them.If they do, the decision will affect all the younger brothers.Because if you are of legal age you can change order as you want.
It may also be that one of the children was born before the reform of the Civil Registry Law, and the rest of the brothers, afterwards.If the parents want to invest the order of the last names in the little brother, they will not be able to, at first.They must register it as the elderly, and once registered, request the change, of both.
And do not think that one can spend his life by changing personality, by López Fernández to Fernández López, and return to López Fernández .... Lucía Silvoso, a specialist lawyer in Family Law, warns that the change of surnames is not reversible, so once one takes the step there is no back.The lawyer recommends that if parents have it clear, it is best to make the change as soon as the child is registered for the first time, because then "it is a nightmare," especially at a certain age.The change of surnames implies: renew the ID, current account, academic titles, driving card ...
The descendants of single mothers inherit the two surnames of the mother, but in case the father recognized that child if he were minor, he would have to carry one of each parent, in the order they agreed.However, if it is an adult person you can choose between: to carry that of his mother, that of her father, or keep both of her mother, because in the end it is as she is known.
Within this manual to customize DNI’s, we return to the beginning.Adults with children who decide to invest their last names have to know that those of their children, if they are minors, will be automatically affected.If they were of legal age, they could already decide what to do.
While investing order is instantaneous, to join two surnames, which is another valid alternative to avoid the loss of some of them, it is necessary to open a file that will resolve the General Directorate of Registries in Madrid.The dynamic is the same, if you are of legal age you can make the decision unilaterally, although your children can be affected in the case of being under 18, and if you are a minor, your parents will have to do it for you, knowingalso that will affect all the brothers.By joining two surnames like López-Escudero, in addition to preventing one of them from being lost (Escudero), the door opens to "rescue a third" that occupies the place of the second.The norm forces one to take one by the father and one of the mother, but as in which we are united, we already comply with the quota, when adding a new one we can choose between the second of either of the two parents.

Silvoso points out that they are usually interspersed when the natural order produces funny or twisted combinations, such as Ester Collero. "There was a story that was published by a person who had Hitler of last name, in that case, the change proceeds, although Franco is a common surname, and there are no problems," he says. What is more common is to take away a second name that is postured in the identity document and that we do not give any use. This is the case of the compound Marias (Luisa María or Fernanda María), not dry, as is my case. They already carry it complement in the first or secondly, more and more adults are elderly dropping ballast, (letters). And although there is no "official" modification, most people with compound names renounce the one they consider more accessory when identifying or filling forms. Of course, do not do so when it comes to plane tickets, since in that case, the regulations require the coincide with the ID, and are at risk of not taking off their feet from the ground.
