Today, my father gave me his blessing to be married on one condition: that I keep my maiden name when I marry. My fiancé thought it would be "epic". My last name will be hyphenated to Cobb-Webb. FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my father-in-law decided to disown myself and his son, because my husband decided to hyphenate his last name. FML
Today, my boyfriend asked me to marry him, saying that the only thing he would change about me is my last name. I later told him that I wanted to keep my last name after the marriage. I'm now single again. FML
Today, I told my family that I wanted to change my last name to my future wife's. We want to have the same last name, and we chose hers because she is an only child, while I have three brothers. Half of my family is laughing and calling me "pussy whipped" while the other half won't speak to me. FML
Today, it was my wedding day. When my soon-to-be-husband was saying his vows, he didn't say my name. He said his mother's. FML
Today, I’m getting married. My friends are all telling me that I’m not a “true feminist” since I’ve opted to change my last name to his. My last name is “Belcher.” FML
Today, my boyfriend said that he doesn't have to marry me because we coincidentally have the same last name. FML
Today, I was talking to a new friend when I told him my last name. It’s hyphenated. He then left and declared me to be a "stuck-up bitch" who thinks she’s "too good to take a man’s last name." This is the name I was born with. FML
Today, I got married. When my father gave me away, in front of hundreds of people, to my groom, he said, "She's your problem now." FML
Today, my mother beamingly asked for my opinion on her wedding dress. She is engaged to her cousin. Conveniently, they already have the same last name. FML
Today, my wife told me the main reason she married me is because I have a cool last name. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Hey, could be worse! My friend named his kid Mike. Too bad his last name is Hunt.

I know a Richard head, unsurprisingly he insists on being called Richard (and absolutely no one listens)

Hugh G. Rection. Although I doubt anyone would have that name for real. Would be funny tho!

I'm gonna be honest, there are worse last names, and I reckon yours would actually be pretty cool :P

This isn't as much as an fml as much as it is just inconvenient.

It's a pretty amusing name :) but it should be up to you whether or not you take it.

Then you have to get a job as a teacher. So the kids can call you Mrs. Cobb-Webb.

You're pretty retarded

I thought one could also choose to keep ONLY one's maiden name and not combine it with one's husband's name? Assuming your fiancé doesn't mind--after all, "Ms./Mrs. Cobb and Mr. Webb" sounds pretty epic too.

Indeed! Or even see if your husband will take your last name

This isn't facebook, silly. There is technically no "like" button on here. But I kind of feel your pain. My name is Destany and noone can spell it right. Plus I constantly get called,"Destiny's child" and asked what's my destiny. It's so annoying! But it could always be worse.

I know, the typical one is sad-a-ba-ha, and yes I'm well aware its not Facebook but I consider thumbing something up means you like it.

My initials are TNT. Imagine growing up with that. People always sing the "TNT dynamite" song once they find out
Angelrose2004 17
You do have a point. Now excuse me while we are both thumbed down to hell! Woo hoo!

40, I know two people who have the initials EW. We don't bring it up around them.

I think initials like "EW" "FAG" and "GAY" are some of the worst initials you could give your kid. It makes me wonder if the parents do it on purpose...my dad purposely had my initials TNT...wouldn't shock me if parents wanted worse initials for their kids
