   I'm changing my name. It feels a little weird, but like others have said, I want to have the same name as my future children. My middle name is my mother's maiden name, so if I keep my last name as a middle name I will have three family names. Ug. Seems very cumbersome. My biggest issue with the name change is what to put…

   I'm having a really hard time with this decision. I always knew I would take FI's name, but it makes me very sad to be the first one of my three siblings to no longer have my family name (I have 2 sisters, 1 brother). My family name is one syllable, 5 letters, easy to pronounce, but very rare. I've never met another person…

   I am changing my last name but I am not exactly excited about it. I am doing it because it is what I want to do, not because I hate my name or love his.. But because I think that the name represents your family and that is what we are becoming. I thought about using my last name as my middle name but its such an irish last…

   I'm kindda on the fence. I have the mind set of " The name I was born with is good enough for me" but I'm also in the boat of wanting to have the same name as my kids. I'm not into hyphenating my name, which BTW just doesn't go together anyways... I also know that FI would be sad if I didn't take his name. So I guess I'll…

   I am changing my name - but I'm sort of sad to do so. My last name is unique and EVERYONE with the last name in the city of Cincinnati is related to me..and there's only like 7 of us. :p FI's last name is unique (at least around here). But I like the idea of a unified name for a family...so when we have kids - it'll just…

   I am changing my name. FI has said numerous times that its my choice and he doesn't understand all the hassle, but if its what I want then cool, but he isn't going to help me do it or listen to me complain about how much work it is! Bride To Be - yes you can have as many names as you want! I will also be just adding FI's…

   I am changing mine! Unfortunately I am changing it to the most generic, common last name........Smith. Normally I wouldn't post my last name but if anyone wants to stalk me good luck! It means a lot to FI though and it is one of the few things I feel super traditional about for some reason.

    Gonna change my name but it'll be bittersweet. If I have both names- it'll be ONELONGLASTNAME!
