This is not correct for Romania: officially it’s Surname + Given-name, live in Hungary.

Not true for Greece, it’s just First-name + Surname. It just happens that some Surnames are derived from the father’s name (think “Anderson”).

    They do! Siblings both carry their father’s father’s name and their mother’s mother’s name.

    Kids of siblings will not have the same family name if the siblings have different gender, but that shouldn’t be an issue

      Interesting! But then how do you deal with the next generation?

      • Boy Adam-Bernard marries Girl Copper-Dale
      • What are their children’s last names?

        See my comment above:

        One of the best proposals I’ve heard is that you would take your father’s father’s name, and your mother’s mother’s name.

          Oh sorry, it makes sense indeed!
