[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is how my family is set up and any of the options people have listed so far would be fine for me. I am not picky. The only unacceptable option for me is to simply ignore the fact that I have a different name and do something like "The Jones Family" (if I"m the Smith) or "Mr. and Mrs. Jones and Family" or whatever. When I get stuff addressed that way, I do feel kind of erased. Also, something a lot of people may not realize is that my kids have my last name, but as their middle names. So it's not actually accurate to say the kids all have their dad's name -- they may have their mom's name or another family name, it's just not their surname.[/quote] I am in the same position. We have family friends - close, who have known us forever. The husband and wife have different last names. We have different last names, and they def know this. Yet every.single.time the husband greets us as "The Husbandslastname family." It's so done.[/quote]
