At the opening of the balcony scene Juliet rather famously asks Romeo (who she has no idea is hiding in the bushes ogling her in her nightie) to "deny [his] father and refuse [his] name," or in other words to say that he is not a Montague.

Juliet is asking why Romeo has to be a Montague, their family's rival. She is questioning why they must be from opposing families, as it creates obstacles to their love.

No, your quotation is wrong. The correct quotation is "Romeo, Romeo wherefore art thou Romeo?" The word "wherefore" does not mean "where", it means "why", so the quotation means "Romeo, Romeo! Why are you Romeo?" Juliet is asking why she had to fall in love with Romeo, the son of Montague, since she is supposed to hate all Montagues.

When Juliet asks Romeo Romeo Romeo wherefore art thou Romeo what is she asking him as understood today?
Looking at the entire passage: JULIET: O Romeo, Romeo! wherefore art thou Romeo? Deny thy father and refuse thy name; Or, if thou wilt not, be but sworn my love, And I'll no longer be a Capulet. It becomes apparent that the "wherefore" is equivalent to the modern "why are you". She is asking what makes him "Romeo" and a Montague. She ponders why they both can't escape their family names and associated tradition of feuding and live happily together. If the wherefore means "where" she could be asking what part of you (Where is what makes you you) , makes you a Montague. If we know this we could give up our family names.
