Either that or they use bin xxx, like bin Laden; bin = son of in Arabic. They don't have true last names, rather names that indicate which tribe or clan they come from.

That's like the old Irish and highland Scots (definitely tribal or clan societies) with their O'- and Mac-Somebodies. Russians have their patronymics, and Scandinavians their -sons or sens. Tribalism is deeply rooted, but has been suppressed in the West by Christianity, the rule of law, and capitalism. Even so, peoples as similar racially as Flemings & Walloons, or Czechs & Slovaks, cannot get along.
