Spanish babies have a given name, followed by the fathers family name, and finally followed by the mothers family name.
For example: Antonio Ramirez Caballero and Rosario Solano Moron have a daughter Carmen, her name would be Carmen Ramirez (from her father) Solano (from her mother). If Carmen has a daughter with Jose Luis ( Jose Luis is 2 words but only one given name like Billy Bob) Rodrigues Zapatero and they name her Maria, then her entire name would be Maria Rodriguez Ramirez.
I don't know if this is a law, but I have never seen an instance where this pattern is not used. It makes it much easier to establish familial relationships.
