The surname becomes, from our birth, our letter of introduction to the world<\/strong> and in one more trait of our identity. And it is that surviving through time and generations thanks to how it is transmitted from parents to children, a surname is much more than the name that accompanies the first name. It is, without a doubt, a reflection of our legacy, not only individual and family, but also national.<\/p>\n

And it is that although obviously and fortunately there is mixture and contact between cultures and despite the fact that we can always come across surnames that are somewhat more peculiar and difficult to find, in each country, according to its historical roots and cultural identity, there are a series of surnames that are repeated with a high frequency among the population.<\/p>\n

And the study of these surnames, if it is already very interesting in itself, becomes a particularly enriching experience when we immerse ourselves in a country like Romania, a nation in southeastern Europe that, being one of the 27 states that make up the European Union Europe, having a population of 19.2 million inhabitants and having a unique culture and history in the world, has many secrets that are worth knowing. Therefore, below we are going to discover, in the form of a ranking, which are the most frequent Romanian surnames<\/strong>.<\/p>\n
