[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My husband changed his last name to mine and our kids have my last name as well. We just liked my name better and it flowed more nicely with the kids’ first names. [/quote] Isn't it funny? I kept my last name, DS took DH's last name. No statement whatsoever--I like my name, DH likes his name, and our DS's name sounds better with DH's last name. Names (imo) are not a feminist statement or a sign of "how married" we are-- they're just names. If I liked DH's name better, I might have taken that...but a small part of it is that DH has a Spanish last name, and my family originated from Northern Europe, but I have a Southern European first name. So, I would be of Northern European descent, with a decidedly Southern European first and last name. I wanted to preserve a little cultural heritage, and keep my last name. [/quote]
