hi, there is some difference between UK/HK and US English.
in UK/HK .... Surname is {Chan}, Name is {Sam}, Middle Name is {Tai Man}.
in US .... First name is {Sam}, Last name is {Chan}, Middle Name is {Tai Man}. however some ppl do not have {Sam}, so, First name is {Tai}, Last name is {Chan}, Middle name is {Man}
參考: living in USA

in western cultures, most people have a middle name,
e.g. Kitty Elaine Hans
Kitty = first name
Elaine = middle name (or sometimes christian name)
Hans = surname/last name
but in eastern cultures, we only have first names and last names
e.g. Chan Tai Man, Sam
Chan = surname/last name
Tai Man, Sam = first name
