I refer you to a Heinlein book called “Friday”. The title character was a DNA construct from many multiple parents. Folks of her type used “my mother was a test tube” as sort of a mantra.
This sort of thing is happening today, but I think it’s in Colorado. The population has degraded to the point that people have forgotten how to make a kid. “Where’s the app?”
Reread The Moon is A Harsh Mistress and Starship Troopers too. It was a shame what the movie makers did to it. The folks who did Firestarter could have done it justice.

Somebody once said they’d sent off for their DNA and Ancestry sent them a packet of seeds and suggested they start a new family tree.

The correct quote is: “My mother was a test tube and my father was a knife.”

Actually unless you were also created independently whose ever cells were taken would be that ancestry.
