Are you working with a @Service too? Because if you are, then you can @Autowired your PersonRepository to the @Service and then in the service just invoke the Name class and use the form that @CuriosMind... proposed:

User findByForenameAndSurname(@Param("surname") String lastname,
                         @Param("forename") String firstname);
}

and when invoking the method from the repository in the service, you can then pass those parameters.
