Usage notes
The surname la Debes only inflects to indicate grammatical case when it occurs alone. When it occurs with a declinable given name, only the given name inflects, with la Debes indeclinable. For example, alone la Debes has the genitive la Debesis, but the phrase la Lūcās Debes has the genitive la Lūcae Debes, not la *Lūcae Debesis.
