[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What a bizarre question. I was born and given a name I liked, and one I became known by.[b] I saw no reason to change it. [/b]My kids were given a name shortly after birth that included my husband’s last name, which is more melodious than mine. If they like it, they can keep it, or they can change it. Why is this very personal thing of interest to anyone else? [/quote] Because you are part of the same family as your husband and children. It seems really weird to me for people in the same family to have different last names. Last names are supposed to signify your family. I wouldn't want to have a separate last name from my own children and husband. [/quote] And yet when your daughters get married you expect them to change their name. So they are no longer part of your family but your sons are? Are your grandchildren with different last names not part of your family? [/quote]
