Pablo Picasso's surprising full name

Pablo Picasso's full name was more than 100 letters long.

Famous Figures

P ablo Picasso is one of the most recognizable names in art history, but if the painter had opted to go by his full name, it'd be a lot harder to remember. He was baptized with one first name, two last names, and 12 middle names, for a grand total of 112 letters: Pablo Diego José Francisco de Paula Juan Nepomuceno Crispín Crispiniano María de los Remedios de la Santísima Trinidad Ruiz Picasso. (The exact order and spelling vary by source.)

It's common in Spanish-speaking cultures to have two last names, one for each parent. In Picasso's case, Ruiz was his paternal surname, Picasso was his maternal surname, and he was given his first name, Pablo, in honor of a paternal uncle who died a few years before his birth. His many middle names each had their own meaning, too.

Some are family names: He was given Diego for both his paternal grandfather and oldest uncle, Francisco de Paula for his maternal grandfather, Juan Nepomuceno for his godfather, and María de los Remedios for his godmother. Others are religious. Santísima Trinidad means Holy Trinity, while Crispín and Crispiniano come from St. Crispín and St. Crispinian, whose feast day, October 25, is also Picasso's birthday.

Some of the artist's earlier works are signed P. Ruiz, P. Ruiz Picasso, or P.R. Picasso — but eventually, he settled on the name known by millions today, choosing just "Picasso" for his signature.

Did you know?

A composer was named for an entire 36-member orchestra.

Louis-Antoine Jullien was a musical celebrity in the mid-19th century, and made a name for himself in the United States and Europe as a conductor and composer with stunning showmanship. One could argue he was fated for musical greatness: His father, Antoine, a small-town French violinist, was playing with a local philharmonic society when he was urged to baptize then-newborn Louis. Each of his 36 bandmates wanted to be the child's godfather, so Antoine bestowed the honor on all of them and gave young Louis dozens of middle names (including more than one Thomas).
