In Goengyi, another far eastern, traditionally animist nation, names are somewhat similar to that of Otren. Like Otrenites, Goengyi people have three names. They, however, have two surnames.
Children inherit one surname from each parent, dependent on the parent’s sex. Fathers pass on the name they received from their own mothers, while mothers pass on the name they receive from their fathers. As a result, the ideal Goengyi family has at least one boy and one girl.
For example, Sue Daeng Qan and her brother, Joeng Daeng Qan, are the children of a man named Daeng and a woman named Qan. Sue’s children would inherit the Daeng surname she received from her father, while Joeng’s children would inherit the Qan he got from his mother.
