Abstract

In the Canarian island of Fuerteventura, just the island and its ancient capital, Santa María de Betancuria, have their own demonyms or family names, while the rest of the villages lack it. The reasons for such a deficiency are diverse: the traditional feudal estate of this Canarian island, its chronic economic penury and the scarce population that it has had along history.
