[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Most people are very busy and once they have address the cards they don’t go back to the spreadsheet for another year. Give grace. Neither my cousi[b]n nor-best friend took their husband’s name. Both are fine when we address cards to first name and first name husband’s last name.[/b] My brother lives with a female partner, it’s a lot to write out first name, last name & first name, last name … and how do I include his DC in that? First name, last name & first name, last name and each DC name or + family (are they a family?). If I write to the last name family, (The Jones Family), this seems incorrect also. His partner does not share his last name. It’s complicated. My MIL was irritated when a relative did not address the Christmas card with Dr. as opposed Mr./Mrs., could not care less.[/quote] Why would you address your cousin and your best friend by names that you know aren't theirs, regardless of how "fine" you think they are with it?[/quote] B/c 20+ years ago when I first addressed a card to them as a married couple, I asked.[/quote] Why don't you try using the right names this year and then ask how they feel about that[/quote]
