[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I kept my cumbersome last name (hyphenated since birth) because it is my last name— and also very unique. I guess the weirdos here would say it’s a combination of my paternal grandfather’s name and my father’s but whatever. I gave my kid her father’s last name because she is biracial and I am white and it’s really important to me that she is aligned with her father’s culture. His last name is distinctively indigenous to his country of origin. I gave a lot of thought to this and perhaps would have hyphenated if that wouldn’t have meant three last names! But as it would have, I went with his last name and my double-last name as her middle name. [/quote] So everyone still got their name from a male. Except you don’t have the benefit of sharing your name with your husband. [/quote] DP. What benefits would those be...approval from shrews like you?[/quote]
