Surnames for Bastards

Postby Morrigan on June 25th, 2016, 4:54 pm

Hello everyone!

I have a simple question. Do bastard children in different regions have standard surnames given to them by the city they are in? Similar to an unidentied Jane or John Doe, or the bastards in A Song of Fire and Ice like Snow, Sand, etc. Something that the state uses to identify them when they have no family name.

Thank you.

Nope. Besides, the whole bastard children naming thing was only really for nobility.
