Yeah. I'd be pretty upset if she wanted to hyphenate it or something. It's like it isn't good enough for her. that noise. |
you are not being very nice in this statement.
why does her name have to totally disappear, is it not good enough?
but as it goes, you can never decide like this unless you are actually getting married. |

Pretty valid question I'd say. Would you take his family name or keep yours? If yes which name would your kids have? And then which name would your grandkids have? |
i have three kids and the first has my last name and the second has the fathers and my third has both! So it can be a complex situ- if both parents are from two different cultures. If there's a decision to be made i wish you better luck than i had! |

| id keep my last, i dont want kids so that answers that question. hypothetically speaking,,,, if i did have a kid,, the last name would depend, i think i have a pretty good last name... but if the person i marry has a nicer one then,, theyd get that one. |

I googled my name and all you find is stuff about Angelina and Brad.....meh!
But I'm a traditional gal....I'd take the man's name. That's how I feel now anyway....who's to say how I'll feel when the time comes... |

no way! Its important to keep tradition and family name. Id maybe be willing to comprimise by having her keep her last name but definately not with the kids. No hyphens or funny stuff there.

exactly, and its a big compromise.
since when do women have rights ?!? (hahahah ok its a joke don't flame me! ) |

for the women
wouldn't it be nice for your son's kids to have your surname? (if you took the husbands name)
for me I'd prefer she takes mine, but the kids pretty muc hhave to :p |

I would think that would be my children's decision as to how they want to name their kids. |

I agree. :D
As for my wife's last name, I'd rather she took mine so my parents don't throw a fit. But I have no problems with her hyphenating as long as the kids have my last name. |
Pretty much my opinion.
Actually in some cultures, (I know in Korean culture) wives keep their maiden name. I don't know why some cultures put tremendous importance on wives taking their husbands' names. After all, it is the love that is most imporant, no? :)
And those of you who said depends on whether the name sounds nice or not, do you not think that's kinda shallow? Are you going to be a cooler person because you have a cool sounding last name? |
