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

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

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 wife told me the main reason she married me is because I have a cool last name. FML

hey one had a teacher name Phil Meidinger. I felt bad for him because everyone always made fun of his name and was such a good teacher.

Why don't you just keep your last name the way it is?

So keep your maiden name and DON'T add your husband's. Maybe you wanted to originally, but it's better that sounding like a cartoon character.

I really love the sound of that, but if you don't want that name you don't have to do it, it's your own choice.
