[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The prior mayor of LA, Antio Villaraigosa did this-- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antonio_Villaraigosa#Personal_life Personally, I'm not a fan because I wouldn't do it myself-- my last name and my spouse's last name are important to us. Our kids have a hyphenated last name. But I know there are others who don't place a ton of value on family history (no judgment) so why not create something new.[/quote] Actually, this guy did it the only way that makes sense. He and his wife changed their last names to the Potmanteau name and then gave that to their children. As in a FAMILY NAME. Like, this is the "Thomwell" family. Instead of Mr. Thompson, Mrs. Maxwell, and their son Larlo Thomwell. I'm laughing even imagining that. It's so pretentious and dumb. [/quote] Pretentious of what, exactly? Also, why must there be a FAMILY NAME? What is nonsensical about Larla Thompson, Larlo Maxwell, and Ava/Liam Thomwell? [/quote]
