My name is, my name is?
Warning!
Talking wedding, no, wait....
Warning!
Talking marriage.
Okay, okay so I am dealing with an interesting platform here, where and I am deciding on whether or not to take my fiancee's last name. Now I already own a good, solid, chill last name. Wouldn't mind a short last name, like Smith or a money last name like Carrington. I also have worked hard to PR my name. For example:
"___________" Student of the Month---1987
"____________" Employee of the Month-Olive Garden---1998
"___________" College Graduate, no cum Laude----2000
"___________" Events Director, Major PR firm, NYC--Present
I was bragging and babbling--sincerest apologies. Believe it or not though, I am actually considering going ahead with the entire "re-branding" if you will-he he
I mean if I am going to do it, why the hell, not go all the way, Ray
On another note--a firmwide email today reported someone in my office had a baby girl, she named her Annabelle Joilie
I want you to think long and hard about that above sentence.
I mean would you hire Annabelle to perform your open heart surgery or to star in your Class D adult compilation? Wait, am I judging? Jeez I am. I am sorry I just worked most of my life trying to change the pootr images of women. Annabelle is inappropriate.
and that's that
Maybe I got you aggravated, unerved, or maybe you got a chuckle bc I speak nonsense. Who knows......

it's a big decision, delicious, but a fun one to make! a new last name might be just what the doctor ordered! ps - even if you don't change your last name, people will still call you by your husband's name. go figure.

I struggled with the last name thing too. He's staunchly anti me keeping my maiden name or hyphenating.
On top of that both our last names are super long. The deciding factor was his reminder that my dad is for all intents and purposes a deadbeat and why would I want to claim his name.
So that pretty much settled it for me.
