Resumen
ROWLAND, Robert. Naming practices in early modern Portugal: a preliminary approach. Etnográfica [online]. 2008, vol.12, n.1, pp.17-43. ISSN 0873-6561.
This article is a first attempt at reconstructing naming practices in early modern Portugal. Different kinds of sources (Inquisition records and local census materials, both ecclesiastical and military) are used to trace the emergence, in the Sixteenth Century, of a model based on the combination of personal names and family names, transmissible from one generation to the next. This process is analyzed within a broader time-frame (from the Roman period), and appears to indicate the specificity of Iberian models within the European context.
