I am pleased to greet you.
Before the existence of what we know as states, the anthroponym was only the proper name of the person. Often it had some descriptive or symbolic meaning. The abandonment of nomadic societies led humans to settle permanently in one place. These settlements, along with advances in agriculture and animal husbandry, led to an increase in population at specific points. This increase in the number of individuals brought the need for hierarchy, and also the need to have, at least, an origin surname.
I bid you farewell.
