How are surnames formed?
Surnames, or "last names," are fairly recent. Most people had one name, to which might be added some descriptive term, e.g. Thomas the lame, or Joan of Arc. Modern surnames come mostly from an ancestor's occupation ( e.g. Sawyer, Farmer); from trades and guilds (e.g. Plummer, Draper); from geographical origin (e.g. French, Hammond); from kinship (e.g. Johnson, Bennett) from titles (e.g. Butler, Masters) or from personal attributes (e.g. Russel, Longfellow). Surnames, permanent family names, developed at different times in different places. They were used in ancient Rome and in ancient China. They were used only by very prominent families (and not by all prominent families) in medieval Europe. Spanish Jews used surnames in the 1400s, but other European Jews began using surnames only when forced to by local governments in the mid-19th century. In Iceland and parts of Indonesia, surnames are still not used.

Why do blacks have English last names?
If by "black", you are referring to African Americans, the reason is because they were originally removed from their native land by force and those who survived the criminally abusive trip across the Atlantic were "resettled" into a country where the dominant language was English. During slavery, surnames were not common as families were often split apart by slave trading. Once freed, slaves took English names because that is what everyone else had. They often took the surnames of former masters or of someone they admired. Since the civil rights movement of the 60's many African Americans have adopted more African and Muslim names.
