Two models in a view

Question

I have a view in cshtml and some model to view values in a columns. In a columns Name4 and Name5 I want to show values from second model and I don't know how to do it. For example now I showing values from model Project.Models.Names but in a column Name4 and Name5 I want to show values from model Project.Models.Surnames for example.

@model IEnumerable<Project.Models.Names>



@{
ViewBag.Title = "Smt";

}

<h2>Smt</h2>


<table class="table">
<tr>
    <th>
        Name
    </th>
    <th>
        Name1
    </th>
    <th>
        Name2
    </th>
    <th>
        Name3
    </th>
    <th>
        Name4
    </th>
    <th>
        Name5
    </th>
    <th>

    </th>
</tr>

@foreach (var item in Model) {
<tr>
    <td>
        @Html.DisplayFor(modelItem => item.Name)
    </td>
    <td>
        @Html.DisplayFor(modelItem => item.Name1)
    </td>
    <td>
        @Html.DisplayFor(modelItem => item.Name2)
    </td>
    <td>
        @Html.DisplayFor(modelItem => item.Name3)
    </td>
    <td>
        ...value from second model
    </td>
    <td>
        ...value from second model
    </td>

Why not creating a model Persons which will include both: names and surnames? — kir.gera, Dec 05 '17 at 14:06
name and surname are randomly names chosen for this question — manhart, Dec 05 '17 at 14:17

Create a Viewmodel class that has properties of Name and Surname. Then bind to that.
