Consultation: "The Simpsons or Simpsons?" Plural
Alejandro:
Your question is very interesting.
In fact, foreign surnames are often not translated (for example, a English text, Roger Waters not appear translated Roger Waters), which is why we believe it is advisable to apply the same rules that apply to English surnames.
The Pan-Hispanic Dictionary of doubt says that the names remain unchanged when appointing the members of one family: last month, visited the Sosa. When used to refer to several people who have the same surname, use vacillates between maintained or pluralize as the standard.
While most English-speakers prefer to keep unchanged, is not considered wrong to use the plural, but much more frequent when the last names end in vowels that when ending in a consonant: In my work, various cheeses and two Escobar .
When pluralized, surnames ending in a consonant follow the same rules the other substantive. In the case of Simpson , which ends in-n , if a English word, the plural is formed by adding-es and, since (except in the words specimen, scheme and character ) the stressed vowel is the same in singular and plural, should act [Simpson] . For all this, we believe it is best Simpson.
One last fact: the names ending in-z always remain unchanged ( the Lopez and Marquez ).

the Spanish acronym
In English, the Acronyms do not change their form when they designate more than one reference. For the plural, we must avail ourselves of the words that modify them: copied DVDs, NGOs, original CDs. It is a reprehensible error pluralize the acronym in English (eg PCs, PCs, CDs, CDs ).
