Last names didn't really exist in Biblical times. However, people were identified from the city from which they or their fathers were from. This is why Jesus is called Jesus of Nazareth.

What is the difference between the 12 Apostles and the 12 Disciplespwww.answers.comQWhats the difference between the 12 Apostles and the 12 Disciples?

The terms "Apostles" and "Disciples" refer to different groups within early Christianity. The 12 Disciples are the followers of Jesus who learned from him and spread his teachings, while the 12 Apostles are specifically chosen by Jesus to be his closest emissaries and to carry out his mission after his resurrection. All Apostles were Disciples, but not all Disciples were Apostles. The distinction often highlights the Apostles' role in leadership and the establishment of the early Church.
