Yesterday's Answer, Today's Question

Yesterday's Answer:


Charlemagne was crowned emperor of the Holy Roman Empire in the 9th Century.



Today's Question:


Give the correct surname of Shakespeare's title character: Romeo.


I know the feuding families were the Capulets and the Montegues. I would go with Monteque because it sounds more fitting to me.
