When making a title slide for the Beck family slide show would the name be proper as The Beck's or just The Becks, without an apostrophe?
The Beck's Holiday - 's indicating posession
The Becks - s indicating a plural
I would myself say:
1. The Becks' holiday.
You could also say:
The Becks means "members of the family whose surname is Beck". The possessive version is therefore The Becks'.
All the best,

Thanks MrP - I have just spotted the typo in my reply.
The family name is Beck, and as a family they would be the Becks (s to indicate plural). The possessive of the Becks would be Becks', and that is what I meant to type.

And I've just spotted the missing example in my post. I wonder where it went. I suppose I forgot to include it.
