In the Middle East, the people did not have last names per say at the time. They were called 'Name' bar 'Father's name'. Paul's/Saul's father's name is not known, but we do know that his father was Pharisee. So Paul would have been known as Saul bar (father's name) or Paul bar (father's name)

What is the correct grammar - Apostle Paul or apostle Paul?
OpinionI would say Apostle Paul wherever I use 'Apostle' as a title, in the same way as I would say Mr Smith, with 'Mr' capitalised. Less frequently, I would write 'apostle' uncapitalised if I did not intend it as a title, for example where 'apostle' is the subject of the sentence, and Paul is addressed. Use capitals to be on the safe side.
