Geats
Ecgtheow, I don't know the last name but Beowulf was raised by the Geats clan which fallowed into the Tevet Clan that is a close clan to each other. (There is NO last names for vikings but clans and tribs. I hope that help a little.
* Ecgþeow was Beowulf's father who belonged to the Swedish Wægmunding clan. He joined the Geats after having been banished for killing the Wulfing Heaðolaf, and married a Geatish princess. * The name of Beowulf's mother is not given in the story, but she is the daughter of King Hrethel and sister of King Hygelac.
