My middle name (from my mother) is Belgian (Flemish to be more precise).
My last name (from my father) is Spanish (Galician to be more precise).
Curiously, my dad is much more Italian than Spanish, but he has a Spanish last name. We only have one known Spanish ancestor, but we still carry his name even though the family is mostly Italian now.
