Don, in europe, last names started in medieval times. They where chosen mostly by profession (names Like Smith, Fletcher, Miller, Carpenter), place of birth if small place at that time (for example common surname in Croatia is Babić, lot of babic villages in Croatia, or ex English guv Southgate, their name is given cuz they lived south of the gate) Also you have Northern and Eastern way that seeped into englad to a bit, is having your father as last name (Johnson, Anderson, Ivanov etc) And rarest was descriptive, for example my cousin surname is Blackman (croatian version), cuz apperently long time ago he was from family of Miners and they all where black (they are white as fuck so its kinda funny). But back to the point, from descriptive names you have last names like Black, White etc There is more ofc description but I tried to keep it short and sorry for bad english writing.

In Europe, at least, only nobles had last names, but when they started doing censuses for taxes in the Middle Ages, commoners who shared the same name as other commoners in the kingdom needed to differentiate themselves (remember these kingdom were a lot smaller than our modern day countries and has much smaller populations.) So, most "commoner" last names are either trades, such as William the Thatcher, aka William Thatcher, your father's name, such as William son of John, or William Johnson, or the place they are from, such as William of Paisley, or William Paisley. In Ireland O' means son of so O'Malley is son of Malley, and in Scotland it's Mc, so McDonald means son of Donald. And with women taking their husband's and father's last names, you get women with the last name McDonald, even though they are female. Most of the time it was the tax man who gave them their last name as they couldn't write. Edit: Not all European countries do it the same way; the Nordic countries do it differently.

To be fair, Sam has several dragon glass daggers.

I like how y'all just want to bitch about Sam leaving the Dragonglass when he did a pretty heroic feat in the first place to save the girl and the baby. He clearly did not want to waste another second for other walkers to approach and was in shock of the whole situation.

Flock of crows is called Murder of Crows, love how you all agreed instantly on death though which to be fair is pretty close

I like you guys, but I think you should stop advertising the podcast in your Patreon promo at the start of videos. There hasn't been a podcast since mid-May.

Regarding the last name discussion: The history of last names, really, comes down to culture. You've got Europeam cultures where your last name reflects your lineage; names like "Johnson" literally come from someone who was "John's Son" whoever "John" was. Other European cultures, especially during the dark ages where record keeping was few and far between, your family name would reflect your family's trade. If you were the son of a blacksmith, your last name would be Smith. If you worked the docks, your last name would be Fisher. Other cultures didn't have last names. Ultimately, I think it was just a way to track lineage or familial connection in one form or another. And family ties were huge parts of probably all recorded cultures in history. It's subtle in Game of Thrones, but you can catch certain scenes where they talk about house sigils. And they mention that Rob Baratheon's house sigil is a stag, but it changed when he became King to a crowned stag. House sigils/Coats of Arms reflect the honors and accolades of the house that earned them. An arm in plate mail was representative of a family of knights. Even the colors of your Coat of Arms had meaning. And your coat of arms was essentially your pedigree/heraldry. It told the story of your family, and with combinations of other heraldry customs of other cultures, we are now left with the patriarchical system of last names being passed on by male offspring, for no other reason than tradition.

My whole thing with 23 and me is so what of they keep your info? Are people really that desperate to know your ancestry? I guarantee your credit card company, your bank, YouTube, everyone already knows exactly who you are the moment they want to. Your information is already on sale to the highest bidder just because you're a semi popular person pn the internet

So my last name is actually American German. Its origins comes from our family being butchers. So we took the word for bacon fat and that became our last name. After fleeing Germany during the lat 30s, we came to America but due to the hostilities of America to Germans during that time, we "americanized" it to fit in. The point of bringing this up was to mention how surnames were created. before the bubonic plague, surnames were based off of where you lived. But after so many died, commoners took surnames based on their profession (kind of their version of class revolution). So names like Miller meant something back then than it does now. So if you can trace your lineage somewhere in the "west" then there's a good chance your name comes from some medieval dumbass just trying to climb the ranks of society. I love history!
