Subject: converting English names to Latin

A friend asked me about converting English names to Latin. I told him what
I knew--which is that you Latinize given names but leave surnames alone. 

My question is: what do you do with surnames in a sentence? Treat them as
third declension nouns or leave them as they be?

Subjunctively,
~James
