Victoria Gabriela RodrÃguez-Morales, so the NY post gives this savage the dignity of 4 HYPHENATED NAMES 4, does this despicable display of pandering and recognition that goes with these scumedia outlets when they address these pukes who will not assimilate into American society. Does anyone think that Victoria morales would be recognized without the 2 other names associated? So sick of these news outlets
At least it spares some of the innocent Victoria Morales.
Its just the one hyphenated name, Rodriguez-Morales.
This isnt really a specific hispanic convention. When you see two last names for a hispanic person - ex Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador, the president of Mexico - those two names are those of both parents Lopez- father, Obrador- mother. This combination is not heritable. You will often find something similar in Anglo custom, when the mothers surname is given as a middle name - John Fitzgerald Kennedy, Henry Cabot Lodge, Lyndon Baines Johnson, etc.
Hyphenating names, creating a double, heritable surname, is a general European custom. It does happen in Spanish sometimes, but is not very common. The British are the real specialists at this.
Victoria Gabriela are two first names, given as they commonly are for Anglo people. Julius Robert Oppenheimer, Dwight David Eisenhower, etc. This isn’t really more common in hispanic practice. In the old days one would throw in a “Maria” or a “Jesus” or some saints name in there as a backup first name.
