[quote=Anonymous]My DH has a last name that has been his moniker since college. While not unusual, he was teased mercilessly as a child. Think something along the lines of "spam" or "fuchs"- never ending fodder for elementary jokes. Even though it became a good thing later on, he is still super sensitive about it. He wasnt just teased because of his name because he was also chubby, weird, nerdy, and not very socially adept- it just gave them something else to tease him about. I wont change my name professionally because Im not trying to have that conversation every time someone sees/hears my new last name (omg thats your last name! is it spelled like xxxxxxx?) but he would have been destroyed if our child didnt get his last name. It would have felt like a rejection. [/quote]
