Dear friends, my first name is Noam and my last name is Dron,
As we know, at least in Israel they follow the father's surname, but this was not always my father's surname. My father came to the Land of Israel from Morocco and they were expelled from Spain (the Jews).

Alhambra Decree
My father's family was deported over 500 years ago from Spain to Spain called Zarzil because of their religion, and so my father's last name was Azarzar because of the name of this island in Spain .
Entry to Israel from Morocco was not easy at all, people who came with higher education from places like Germany, the Soviet Union and Europe in general ridiculed people from the East who had little education and were simpler people
My father tells how they called him by the name of his family. They called him "Zarzir", a kind of bird, and the Hebrew word it sounds like a pig, although my father laughed with the peoples who said that but inside he felt the inferiority they showed him.
My father decided to change the name of our family to Dron, an Israeli surname means present my father lucky is that he doesn't look like someone who came from Morocco so switch the name was enough for him to cover his identity. This family name does not signify that you came from Europe or anything like that, but my father was disgusted with everything related to being Moroccan for many years
Sometimes he identifies so much that he laughs at Moroccans himself and mocks them even though he is one himself.
There was racism against us in Europe (the Jews). We were expelled from Spain, we passed World War II, and we lost half of our people in torture and in the most difficult ways, but do the bad things that happen to us begin in us, by not being united enough?
