your new last name
for girls who will be taking their husband's last name, i'm curious to see who is really happy about it, and who is not so thrilled...going only by the name itself, not your feelings about actually taking his name and becoming his wife...i'm pretty sure we're all really excited about that aspect...but i absolutely HATE my last name...
so for me, i am REALLY happy about the name change!!
anyone else?!

Re: your new last name
I love his last name more than mine. I am just upset because I have had my last name forever so its going to be weird not having it anymore. I don't like change too much but I will get used to it.

Re: your new last name
I've always HATED my last name. Lets just say it rhymes with a deli meat and always got made fun of as a kid. But I would rather keep my last name than take FHs. I hate his more!! Its so long and doesnt have a nice sound to it
But I like the idea of taking my husbands name.. so even though i hate it, i'll be taking it.

Re: your new last name
I love my last name. It is only 3 letters. His last name is 12 letters. I always have to concentrate when I spell his last name.I am undecided about what to do with our last name situation. I don't like the idea of us both having different last names. And please- to hyphenate it. There might not be enough spaces when filling out forms.

Re: your new last name
im not sad..but my last name is of Spanish decent and I dont look spanish at all...so I feel like Im losing my 'hispanic' side b/c thats all I had for someone to recognize that I am half latina.

Re: your new last name
I'm not happy about it at all. both our last names are long, and hard for anyone to figure out how to say. mine is easier though, and italian. I don't even know if I want to change it. his name is so easy to make fun of also. all my friends do that with his last name. I told him we should just both together get a new last name to share lol. something simple and cute. he didn't like that idea.

Re: your new last name
I love his last name. I am just sad to see my last name go. Mostly because my father has no boy airs to his name and I am the last one to have it. Oh well, life goes on.

Re: your new last name
I really like my last name better than FHs. It's longer and harsher sounding than mine. He doesn't care if a change my name or not which I will anyway.

Re: your new last name
very happy about changing my last name.im curious to know what yours is..we can compare whos is worse.
We both have german names but his is recognized as german, and im told mine is but it doesn't sound ethnic at all.
Its also a little funny b/c my first name (sort of) rhymes with his last name...
i cant, for the LIFE of me write my first name & his last name together comfortably.;.. but im practicing!!
lol

Re: your new last name
I LOVE my last name. It may sound weird.. But I love the fact that my first, middle and last name all have 6 letters... I like how its even.FH's last name sounds weird to me (its only 5 letters).. and its going to throw off the 'even' name i already have.
I tell him I will take his last name, but I am going to add a letter at the end
weird i know..
