Brain teaser: Mother’s name is Mrs. Sixty two, Son’s name is…. Please help me solve this?

I came across a brain teaser that I need help with. The riddle states: "Mother's name is Mrs. Sixty Two, Son's name is Fifty Two, Daughter's name is Forty Two. What is Father's name?" I'm a bit confused about the answer. Some people suggest that the answer is "Two," but I don't quite understand how that works. Could someone please explain the reasoning behind this? Thank you in advance for your assistance!

Mr. Two.

The wife and kids would have taken the husband’s last name.

That’s a rather outdated question.

Well, his last name is "Two". That's why everyone else in the family has the same last name. (If the mother's name was "Mrs. Sixty Smith", what would the father's last name be?") His first name could be anything, really.

The mother is Mrs." Sixty Two. Historically, married women were referred to as Mrs. (Husband s first and last name" and not by their own first and last names. Thus, Mrs. Sixty Two is the wife of Sixty Two based upon that custom.

Hey.. Answer is Two.

Every one Mom,son n daughter has Last name appended with "Two".

In some traditions father's name is appended to the first name of person.

62 52 & 42 cannot be their ages because between mother and son difference of only 10 yrs is not practically possible. So two is the fathers name this logic only seems correct
