family name不同于first name,family name是指姓,family name就是指一個(gè)家族的第一個(gè)字,通常一個(gè)家族的姓是相同的,所以,family name是姓。

牛津詞典中對(duì)“first name”的解釋是“first name is a name that was given to you when you were born, that comes before your family name”，first name是指在你出生時(shí)給你起的名字，放在姓氏之前。

大家都知道，西方人的英文名字和我們中國(guó)人正好相反，他們喜歡把姓氏放在最后，名字放在最前面，因此，first name從字面上來(lái)看，就是“第一個(gè)名字”也就是放在首位的名字（這里不包含姓氏）。

【例句】

We use Mr., Mrs or Miss with the family name but never with the first name.

我們將先生、夫人或小姐等稱呼和姓連用，但絕不和名連用。

His name is Tom Green. His first name is Tom and his surname is Green.

他全名是湯姆格林，他叫湯姆，姓格林。

amily name相當(dāng)于中國(guó)的姓,first name相當(dāng)于名。

2.In western countries, people don't usually talk about "given names" and "family name."

在西方國(guó)家，人們通常不說(shuō)取的名字和姓。

family name=last name=surname=姓 first name=名 middle name中國(guó)人沒(méi)有 例：豬八戒 last name=Zhu, first name=Bajie Bajie Zhu or Zhu,Bajie
