Use this to state the family name. If a person has changing family names (as in the case of married women in many European languages), state both and qualify with P820 (object functions as) Q266694 (birth name) or other as needed - e.g Q945340 Second name in the compound family name. A P49 (or P106) qualifier can be used to date changes. (English)
