changing your last name??? The feminist part of me doesnt want to change it completely, but I also dont want to have a different last name than my FH and (future) kids. I was leaning towards hyphenating but sometimes I think it would be easier to just take his last name fully, less complicated. My last name is 8 letters long...his is 5...if I hyphenate, my last name will be 13 letters!!!

I honestly can't wait to change mine...I'm going from Rakamaric to Caruso....it'll be nice to at least have my new last name pronounced correctly for the rest of my life

Re: Are you ladies....

I'm definitely changing mine... seems silly but I've always looked forward to it, like it's always been a part of getting married to me
