[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. I know it's controversial, and trust me we have talked extensively about how this isn't "fixing" anything and he seems aware of that. It's more about what the PP said, his identity and our children's identities (who are both boys btw so would likely carry this on) are connected to this name and my husband (and I?) would rather them be connected to something we create and sustain. My maiden name wouldn't work at all so we'd create our own last name for the four of us. And to be honest, as tired as I already am thinking of the logistics of all this, I do kind of like the idea that we would be creating something that's just "ours" so that the poison of his family (and trust me, it's bad) isn't something we all were tied to.

Sounds great! Choose a name that suggests new beginnings, a journey.

Sojourner, Horizon, Walker.... I dunno. I hope you find something that feels right and sets your family on a new path. Remember, your sons will carry this forward. Give them a positive story, not just "well, Daddy can't stand his parents." It matters.[/quote]
