Cách sử dụng
A matronymic is a name that comes from the mother rather than the father. For example, if someone's name is "Lisa Johnson" but their mother's name was "Mary Smith," their matronymic would be "Mary" instead of "Johnson." This word is not commonly used in everyday conversation but can be helpful for genealogy (the study of family history) or if discussing cultural naming traditions in certain parts of the world.
