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

It's doubtful that the father was being completely serious, and like the fiancé thought that it would be an "epic" name.

I agree with your fiancé. That would be pretty epic... I still don't think you should do it though lol

Name your daughter Arachne from Greek mythology ;)

I didn't ask my fiancée's parents. It didn't occur to me. In retrospect that is good because her mother would not have said yes.

When I got engaged I viewed surname choice like a negotiation. Both my other half and I would say what we wanted and find common ground. I would ask that we had the same surname, whether she changed hers or I changed mine and that the name wasn't a double surname. Turns out I over thought it because she wants to take my name

I find your condition saddening solely because of your fiancée's use of "epic".
