From Wikipedia:
Spanish naming customs are historical traditions for naming children practised in Spain. According to these customs, a person’s name consists of a given name (simple or composite) followed by two family names (surnames).
The first surname is usually the father’s first surname, and the second the mother’s first surname. In recent years, the order of the surnames can be decided at birth. Often, the practice is to use one given name and the first surname only (e.g. Miguel de Unamuno), with the full name being used in legal, formal, and documentary matters, or for disambiguation when the first surname is very common (e.g. Federico García Lorca or José Luis Rodríguez Zapatero).[1] In these cases, it is common to use only the second surname, as in “Lorca” or “Zapatero”. Note that this does not affect alphabetization: discussions of “Lorca”, the Spanish poet, must be alphabetized in an index under “García Lorca”, never “Lorca”.

I don't want to see any of her holes, especially her pie hole.
Surely, she is going to distribute that equally to the poor.
Sale rack? Snort. Stores do not put the current season’s clothing on the sale rack. She buys off the 100% full priced rack. If she were to buy of the clearance rack, maybe she could afford her rent. Better yet, don’t give us the poor widdle me hooey when she’s raking in $$$$ from her privileged income.
I give her 2 years. I was being conservative. I basically agree with you.
Or be prepared to tell the word-Nazis to blow it out their 0bama.
I think the point is that she wears expensive clothes but claims poverty.
She looks like any of a million other young ladies going to work redistributing the fruits of other people’s labor.
I would agree that she will probably end up a multi millionaire. But I think that if she upsets enough apple carts, the Dem leadership will work hard to get her primaried out in the next election. And they won’t be secretive about it.
Not exactly. In Spain and most Spanish-speaking areas, people go by two last names: their paternal surname (”apellido paterno”) and their maternal surname “(apellido materno”). For example, in the case of Peruvian author Mario Vargas Llosa, his father’s last name was Vargas and his mother’s last name was Llosa. Vargas Llosa would be alphabetized under the V, because it is the paternal surname that dominates. Vargas Llosa’s children would have Vargas as their first last name but would not have Llosa as their second last name (unless Vargas Llosa happened to marry a woman whose last name was Llosa).
Since Alexandria’s parents are Puerto Rican, they would teach her that her name was Alexandria Ocasio Cortez. Of course, someone who went to school in New York (or anywhere else that does not use Spanish naming customs) with the name “Alexandria Ocasio Cortez” would be referred to as “Miss Cortez” instead of “Miss Ocasio” or “Miss Ocasio Cortez” (both of which would be correct). For that reason, many people who use both last names choose to adopt a hyphenated =surname when dealing with people unfamiliar with Spanish naming customs. That’s what Alexandria has done with society writ large.
As for her mother, born Blanca Cortez and married to Sergio Ocasio, she would be known in Puerto Rico as Blanca Cortez de Ocasio. That wouldn’t fly in New York, and instead of going by Blanca Cortez Ocasio (with her maiden name becoming her middle name, a la Hillary Rodham Clinton) she decided to use a hyphenated married name with her husband’s name first: Ocasio-Cortez). That is quite uncommon, but maybe she did so because her children were using Ocasio-Cortez and she didn’t want to confuse matters by going by Cortez-Ocasio.
Maybe the 0bama’s have a spare room they could give the poor girl in exchange for a few fashion tips.
Oh look, she’s been shopping. Wonder what’s in that shopping bag she’s carrying?
#5: “Why does she have a hyphenated name? “>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
It’s a new Democrat party requirement.>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
“Occasional-Kotex” is quite a name to live up to !
Wonder what’s in that shopping bag she’s carrying?>>>>>>>
A whip and a dildo?
Do you think she's smart enough to know what to do with them?
Meh, I have never had any problem finding $500-$2000 suits, barely used, for well under $100 at thrift stores. I know a couple of places in the nearest big city where a girl could throw together a nice outfit for less than a new one a JC Penney’s
Do you think she’s smart enough to know what to do with them? >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
They wouldn’t let her carry a gun?
She buys the current season outfits.
Mens suits rarely go out of style. Well, except disco style though they are making a comeback.
And she'll be a millionaire in a couple of years.
It could also be the low quality of the photo.
