Re: Brides taking FH's last name...
I practice but I am just starting to get it right. I felt weird the other day because I had to fill out something for my calss reunion and when it is held I will be married so I used my FH's last name instead of my own. It was definately different!

I love my soon-to-be last name. My initials are actually going to be the same.

Re: Brides taking FH's last name...
I have tried and I like it!! My new name will be a little plain and common but I drop 2 letters and 2 syllables!! I love that it's shorter to write and easy to pronounce. Unfortuantely though, I will still have to spell it out for people because even though it's only one syllable, it's one of those name that can be spelled like 10 different ways!

It's weird, right? We build such cool relationships with each other, but still protect our identities...

Re: Brides taking FH's last name...
My name is going to double in letters and from one syllable to 4 syllables. His last name is also very Italian, and I'm not Italian at all . I am probably going to hyphenate my name just because I can't imagine myself without it.

I'm going from 7 letters 3 syllables, to 13 letters and 5 syllables
are you actually spelling out h-y-p-h-e-n. Just kidding.
LOL yea i will...but its soo funny hes work email had to be shortened cuz the name was soo long...and everyone is ALWAYS pronouncing it wrong...and everyone i know loves my last name...its going to be so hard to give it up... so i decided since I dont have a middle name...I will give myself a middle name using my maiden name lol fh says i'm crazy...i said stop laughing our kids are having the same middle name...he said i'm crazy...i said ok if we have girl she'll have it ..not the boy? haven't gotten an answer yet
My middle name is my mom's maiden name. It's nice (and it was before everyone used hyphens... so she wanted us to have both of their last names.... which is also nice, b/c now I will keep my mom's maiden name as part of my new married name!)

This is just me being paranoid, but I'm always worried about giving out too much info just in case some non-bride stalker/murderer is on here trying to find his next victim. I really think I've watched too many of those Lifetime movies

Paranoid? NOT AT ALL! I think that we all refrain from giving that out because you never know. Unless you actually meet someone off of here, it's different. Then again, how much do you really know a person in the 1st place? They could snap at any time. lol
