According to IMDB.com, everyone has a last name except Sheperd Book. Maybe Book is his first name, maybe it's his last name, I don't know.

We all know Mal Reynolds, the Tams and Jayne Cobb, but was Kaylee's, Wash & Zoe or Inara's last name ever used?

Oh, and while you're on names I've been meaning to ask: do y'all think "Wash" is short for "Washington"?

Not sure about the spelling of Kaylee's name but in Shindig they announce her as Kaywinnit Lee Frye I think.

May have been the losing side. Still not convinced it was the wrong one.

In Shindig they announce Inara Sara with Atherton Wing.

Keywinnit Lee Fry (not sure about the spelling either)

Inara Serra

both infos are from Shindig, where they are announced at the ball.

Shindig also gives us Inara's last name of Serra. (And I see someone beat me to it)

I always assumed that Book was the Shepherd's last name, but that it is an alias.

I remember seeing Wash and Zoe's last name somewhere, but it was the same since they are married. Zoe's maiden name remains a mystery.

Kaylee's full name is given when she is "announced" at the ball in Shindig. If memory serves me correctly it's "Miss Kay Wyneth Lee Frye and escort". If I get a chance I'll watch that scene later today and double check. Also, and I could be completely wrong here but I seem to recall seeing somewhere that Wash's last name was Warren.

Or, to give him the benefit of the doubt, a religous name taken when he joined his order. (And a very Chinese name it is, too, actually--I just met a Chines guy whose parents named him "Shu", book.)

It's Kaywinnit Lee Frye. If in doubt, check the captioning.

There used to be a thread over Wash's name, something about his real name being Jerry Lee (I don't know what's up with that).
imdb.com had his name listed for Firefly as 'Wash' Warren and Zoe Warren

It makes sense to me that it could stand for Washington, though.
