How are people named in the Naruto world? Sometimes the father passes it down (Choji -> Chocho Akimichi) but then we get a curveball and the mother passes it down (Minato Namikaze -> Naruto Uzumaki). Is it like you said and based on rank, and the kid keep the name of greater rank, do the parents decide, or something else?
