Vieure
For the average person, Vieurais names observe a simple given name-familial name structure, with the familial name being inheritted down the male line. After marriage, the surname of one partner changes to match that of the other, depending on whether or not the marriage was matrilineal or patrilineal. In all cases, the child of a nobleman holding a title is given a rank below that of their father. For noble men, it is also common for them to append the name of the location of their noble seat to the end of their name.

Men are sometimes adopted into noble families to add their assets to the family, though they cannot inherit unless there are no natural-born children to take the assets. Such men retain their original familial surname, but append the name of their adoptive line to their name. For example, if Martin Lours were adopted into the family of Pérri Montin, he would become Martin Lours de Montin.
