Gendered patronymics and surnames #24

Saw a discussion regarding patronymics, and it feels like another important concept to keep in mind is that many countries rely on gendered patronymics and surnames.

Below a romanized example:

Father
Vladimir Petkov

Son
Evgenii Vladimirov Petkov

Daughter
Lidia Vlamidirova Petkova

While it would be ok to manually handle their gendered suffix, it would still be important to somehow detect that they all count towards the same family entity

Thanks, yes it is on our list. Examples of how women change or do not change their surname when they get married would help as well! Suggestions about how these names would be grouped together.
