Surnames that are nouns/double nouns?

Hello!

I frequently need to come up with character names, because I paint, and I give all of the characters I create names and stories. I’m trying to put together a list of names I like so I can use it when I’m struggling to name a character.

I’ve realized that I like last names that are two words put together (like Applegate), but I’m having so much trouble finding names like this, and I wondered if anyone could help? I’m also looking for last names that are just single nouns.

Thank you :slight_smile:
