William the Bastard (as he was illegitmate) or officially the Duke of Normandy which he was before he conquered England.
William did not have a surname. People had descriptions after their personal names, but these were not surnames as they changed from time to time and were not inherited from father to son. Before he became King of England, William was Duke of Normandy, and the "of Normandy" was the nearest to what we would call a surname.

In 1066, His army of knights defeated Harold's foot soldiers. William was then crowned king of England and became known as William the Conquerer. -Journey Across Time Glencoe
William the Conqueror's last name was technically "Normandy" because he was the Duke of Normandy before becoming King of England. But let's be real, last names weren't really a thing back then, so it's not like he was signing his name as "William Normandy" on royal documents. So, in short, his last name was more of a title than a traditional family name.
