Re: taking your wifes last name
What was his name to begin with? If I had a name like Ben Gay or Richard Head or something similarly stupid thanks to crackhead parents I'd likely change mine as well.

Re: taking your wifes last name
My English teacher in college was a huge feminist. She kept her last name and they chose a brand new name different than the mother or father for the child. I cant imagine that child wont have issues.

[ QUOTE ] Unless your wife is making more money than you, this is completely unacceptable. [/ QUOTE ] even then it is totally unacceptable. [/ QUOTE ] Seriously. I've always figured my future wife would end up w/ my last name, but if she didn't want it, I think we could work out some sort of a compromise. No way in hell would such a compromise involve me taking hers.

[/ QUOTE ] My name caused me a load of bother in Technology class at school. The workshop was only allowed 20 people, but there were 24 of us in the class. Each week 4 people had to sit out and do something else, so they couldn't work on their project. Since my name was at the top of the list, I had to sit out on the very first week. The next week everyone would know exactly what they were doing and had moved onto the next step, and I had to try and find out how to start the friggen thing. Gradually I got more and more behind and I never finished my projects.
