| English to Spanish translations [Non-PRO] | | English term or phrase: First name, second name, last name | | For forms in the US in Spanish, what would be the best way to say "second name", do Spanish speakers in the US use both last names (mom & dad's)? Thanks, everyone! |

2 mins confidence:  peer agreement (net): +1 nombre, primer apellido, segundo apellido
Explanation:
no he visto <second name> en inglés... en cambio <middle name/initial> sí.
Supongo que el <second name> es el primer apellido.
Aquí in EEUU, los hispanohablantes suelen usar solamente un apellido, porque si no, las autoridades se confunden.
