as a mexican i can’t help but laugh at how wrong some americans writing mexican characters get the way our name system works so lemme explain so you can get it right!
so most mexicans (remarking MOST because i do mean 99% of us) have TWO last names that come from our parents. it's basically like this:
name / paternal last name (dad's first last name) / maternal last name (mum's first last name).
the first last name is ALWAYS the paternal last name, it always comes from the dad side of the family. there are some exceptions though. in 3 states of the country it's already legal to put the maternal last name first but it's very rare and usually only in special cases, like when the father is absent for example.
there are also cases where the person has only one last name but this is not only extremely rare but it can cause a lot of hardships with legal documentation like school, banks, etc. this can happen for some reasons:
1- they're the child of a single parent (however, to avoid the difficulties that come with having one single last name some end up being registered with the same last names as the parent, but inverted)
2- they were registered in another country where they only have one last name (for example USA, a friend of mine was registered there and for that reason they only have one last name in their documents)
it's important to mention that unlike american last names, the two last names are not separated by “-” they're only separated by a space.
the last names are not necessarily one word, some have two or three. for example last names like “de la rosa” or “del olmo”
also, there's no such thing as married name here. women don't change their last names nor mix them with their husbands last names.
as i am aware, last names tend to work like this in all latin america but many specific details may be different depending on the country and i am not that well informed.
either way, i hope this helps anyone who’s developing a mexican character!

Here's Iris and her family!
First her papa and mama, Benigno and Gabi. Benigno lived in China since he was kid, he grew up with his childhood friend and the two ended up married, the two happy with their lives with him working as a dance teacher..though there days would darken and 2 years later his wife passed away. With that he left his job and moved back to Mexico to clear his head. Once there he stayed cooped up on his family farm before he got himself a job at the market. There he met Gabi, a divorced mama and her daughter Xavier who camed back from the states a year prior. The two found each other company to be comforting and the love that formed between them only grew once they learned of each other love for dancing. Anyways timeskiping here- the two got married, had 3 more kids and moved back to China as Benigno was offered a job opportunity and the kids were old enough. They're now both dance teachers, both tough and sweet folks. The two are alright with Iris and Yin relationship (Benigno moreso as the two remind him of his first relationship)
Her eldest siblings up next!
Xavier the step sister, she's somewhere in her late 40s and is a blogger/cyclist/. She loves herself comfy clothes and is always wearing her green hoodie whenever she can. She blogs about her travels and loves sending flowers as gifts. She stayed in Mexico when the rest of the family moved to China.
Her 2nd eldest siblings, Roma! In her 30s. She got a temper and is stubborn as heck. Her fiery attitude often lands her in some hot water, but she can usually talk her way out of it once she cools down. She's protective of her family's, yes families. Roma here is a mother to two kids and has a loving husband. Anyways she's protective as heck and she doesn't understand what Iris sees in that no good silver demon. She plans on going back to Mexico someday...even if it means leaving her husband and kids.
3rd oldest sibling her brother Mateo, nicknamed Mocha due to his love for it. He's 31, a wedding planner and a good one at that. He's outgoing, a smooth talker like Roma and he has a quite of an annoyance towards MK and any of the villains that he has fought. Why you might ask? Well some weddings have been ruined thanks to them and it chips away at him every single time. Like all the time and effort gone just like that! Don't get him started on the bridezillas or grooms-. It takes everything in him to not lose his temper! Anyway, he has a marigold tattooed on his neck and the skeleton of his arm and hand tattooed on his right arm and hand. An eyebrow piercing and heavy eye shadow (much to his parents disapproval)

btw this is Iris (I'm saying this because I haven't drawn her that much-)
