My name, following Spanish uses, is "Juan Manuel" (name) "Barranquero RÃos" (two surnames).
It's uncommon here to refer to someone by the two surnames, other than in specific
situations. And I don't like my double name, so I *always* use Juanma, except in official
documents. I introduce myself as Juanma Barranquero and that's how I self-identify.
...Except that I went to Buenos Aires, coming from São Paulo, and I don't know what did
the travel agency assume about my origins. All I know is that I was in a hotel lobby and
suddenly they called for a "Mr. Juan RÃos" and I thought for a moment "curious, that guy's
got the same name as my maternal grandfather"... Until it dawned on me, a few seconds
later, that *I* was supposed to be "Mr. Juan RÃos".
