Abstract
Serious research certainly needs time to produce results. Even before producing results, the research needs to be born through a rigorous theoretical framework that can serve as a reference structure to validate the research hypothesis. The impulse to integrate bullying research with the theme of discrimination is not new, as there were other attempts of some scholars who have briefly cited elements of discriminatory bullying (Smith 2007) and ethnic bullying (Menesini 2007). There are other works that have addressed the issue of bullying and immigration, bullying and homophobia, bullying and gender, etc. However, what is missing is an approach and a theoretical reflection to research and analyse in different and varied contexts, and with different groups of people, the interconnection between bullying and discrimination.

The Italian legal system that governs surnames of children states:- The child born from parents united in marriage assumes only the surname of the father. The recognised child (conceived between people not in a relationship between themselves), assumes the surname according to the following criteria:
-
(a)
Assumes the surname of the mother, if she is the only parent who acknowledges the child;
-
(b)
Assumes the surname of the father, if he is the only parent who acknowledges the son;
-
(c)
Assumes only the surname of the father, if there is joint recognition by the parents;
-
(d)
The name and surname are given by an official of civil status, if the infant is not recognised by both parents;
-
(e)
For the child indicated at point (d), and subsequently recognised, the surname is eventually determined on the basis of the criteria described in paragraphs (a), (b), (c). However, if the recognised child is now an adult, he/she is given the faculty to choose the surname.
