Usually it's better to do this via initialize

class Person
  def initialize(name, surname)
    @name, @surname = name, surname
  end
end

Person.new('Max', 'Mustermann')

You can combine that with attr_accessor

class Person
  attr_accessor :name, :surname

  def initialize(name = nil, surname = nil
    @name, @surname = name, surname
  end
end

person = Person.new('Max')
person.surname = 'Mustermann'
