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

Last call, bad decisions and 3 a.m. texts you'll regret until noon. Cheers.
Same thing different taste
Unreasonable
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
Feminism is when you keep your name?
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
The patriarchy rules
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
Romance in Appalachia
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

And what would that 'sign' be exactly? I'm trying super hard to figure out how anyone could take having the last name of 'Cobb-Webb' as any type of a sign, good or bad. Please, please enlighten me.

This is not an FML OP it should be a celebration! You're getting awesome last name and your father is okay with the wedding.

Are you an only child or have all girl siblings? It seems f-ed up to me that your dad would only give his blessing if you kept your maiden name. I'm sure he probably would not have been willing to accept the same terms when he married your mother. He sounds like a dick.

Your father doesn't own you. Do what you want with your name.
