*Like in most of Europe, in Romania it is customary for a child to take the father's surname, and a wife her husband's surname. In cases where paternity is not established, the child takes the mother's surname. The law however is flexible, allowing for the couple to choose their family name, and thus the surname they would use for all their children. | *Like in most of Europe, in Romania it is customary for a child to take the father's surname, and a wife her husband's surname.
