Don't worry, I'm not asking you to post your last name here, lol!
I was just wondering, mainly for those of you who are married/engaged - do any of you have a real sense of pride when it comes to your last name?
When I got married, I did not want to give up my last name. It's not that it's such a great name or anything, but it's a good solid name, it's British and I take pride in that part of me... I kept it as my middle name as a compromise.
Now that I'm getting divorced, people ask me if I'm going to keep my married name and I said no, I'm going back to my maiden name. Today in my classroom I walked around the room and started erasing my married name off of things that are mine and putting my maiden name on it. For some reason it made me sad but happy at the same time.
Am I weird?
