Maiden name?

How many of you miss your maiden name?
I cant stand when people cant say my married name It is shorter then my maiden name but yet no one knows how to say it
But I will always be a Miller

i really dont miss it but coincidently today, i was writing my new name and then i got a little sad for a moment, like aww, what happened to old Lorin. so i know what you mean especially if you loved your maiden name

My married name is sooo much easier for people to say and spell than my maiden name ever was, so I don't miss it.

This.

Also, I don't have the greatest relationship with my dad so I'm happy to let go of his name.

I really like both names equally... It wasnt a hard switch to mazzilli altho im already tired of the 'are you related to lee mazzilli' question that ive now inherited!

Well you all know i like my new name!! and you girls make it feel like mine, cuz most of you call me by it! LOL

its much better than PIGnetti!

Nah i dont miss it like i thought i would because honestly i got a pretty nice last name. But like i said on FB Gigante/Gigantic - hmmm kinda explains my arse to a tee! lol Even though u should pronounce it Gee-gone-tay NOT Gee-gan-tea (although we all kinda do anyways lol) My maiden is Rasulo (yes with an S) why everyone in the world loved to call me Razzzulo. HATED THAT! UGGG I was always like whats wrond with its an S do u also say Zzzzzorry???? Hello!

Yes & no. My maiden name was a pain in the butt to spell out over the phone to people...'D as in David, i capital B as in Boy, L, A, S as in Sam, I'

Now my last name has less letters that sound like other letters....but I know the jokes that follow 'Oh - like Happy Days?!? Richie Cunningham!'
(And people think theyre unique...nope, DH has been hearing it all of his life!)

i dont miss it at all

i love DH's name!

hmm thats hard to say. my old name seemed to intimidate people and they would ALWAYS mangle it to the point where im like 'where did you get tht from???'. DH's name is short and you cant pronounce it wrong...although people still spell it wrong.

i was just always used to having a unique name. anyone who had my last name was related to me. now i have a boring common name and if you do a search on my new name there are a gazillion matches where with my old name it was just me :)

I don't care about my maiden name.
Both are pretty easy to pronounce.
Although... when I have to give my name over the phone... no one ever knows what I'm saying when I say SANDS... they think it's Sanz or other variatios. Then I just explain... it's like the sand you find on the beach but with an s. haha!

haha, i hear you Kerri. My new last name is Bernstein, and I almost always have to say 'like the Bears' at the end of it.

Ummm
