Spanish names are generally popular in Spain, Latin America, and other Spanish-speaking regions. However, they have found popularity and appreciation in different parts of the world, contributing to the global tapestry of names. Generally, Spanish names have deep religious and traditional roots, and their meanings are often linked to religious figures, saints, or virtues (1). In Spain, traditional naming practices involve a person's identification and official registration through Spanish names. Each name consists of a single or composite given name followed by two surnames - the father's paternal family name and the mother's paternal family name. From timeless classics like Jose to the trendy Cruz and advanced Salvatore, several versatile Spanish names represent Spain's romantic charm and royal heritage. However, four names widely used for decades are Antonio, Jose, Francisco, and Manuel. In Spanish naming customs, given names are treated as single entities, regardless of the number of names they consist of. It means the given name and the middle name are generally spoken together as a single name. Moreover, Spanish names have rapid and seamless pronunciation, sometimes leading to unconventional abbreviations like blending Pedro Raúl into Pedroúl.
