[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]All of our adopted children had the last names of their biological parents before we adopted them. I honestly don’t see how this is different. But either choice is fine, OP. I’m just voting for all taking your new husband’s name at the adoption (not the wedding). [/quote] Well in one case the biological parent is someone who you were married to and chose to conceive this child with. In the other case they’re essentially strangers who you have no preexisting connection or loyalty to.[/quote] DP. I don’t see it as a loyalty issue to either father, biological or adopted. My feeling is that it would be better for the boy to have his adopted father’s last name for practical and bonding reasons. [/quote]
