if i were to marry my bf today, i would probably stick with my last name. im chinese but my mother gave me an american name which is actually a rather popular hispanic name. my boyfriend is hispanic so if i took his last name, anyone hearing it would assume that im hispanic. not that id mind very much, but id rather not have ppl expecting something else before they see me.
and it would mean we'd have the same initials. this is only weird to me because my mother very specifically made sure that my siblings and i did not have the same initials so when we were kids, we'd leave notes for each other with simply the first letter of our names (R, M, J, u get the point). now it's ok b/c my bros will send me an email addressing me as J and my boyfriend an email addressing him as JA. but if we had the same initials? bah, it would mean massive confusion and we'd have to come up with a difft system lol
