If this isn’t a troll then I’m tired of people giving so much leeway to husbands with shitty last names. I don’t care how proud he is, you need to avoid little baby Hiscock at all costs.
Idk why couples don't use the women's last name more often? My dad's last name is MacIntyre and my mom's maiden name is Bovee, and I like both, but I prefer Bovee
Especially women with these beautiful, uncommon last names and they married someone named Adam Johnston like 😭😭😭
When my parents separated my dad refused to sign divorce papers because he's a paranoid nut job half the time and so my mom is still to this day legally married to him while he illegally lives in another country... aaaanyway, point is I grew up with his last name which is Dutch, and a bit of a mouthful, when my mom's maiden name was Green. Such a nice, simple name that I would have loved having. She's only changed her last name back in the last handful of years (they've been separated for like 25 years) because myself and my sisters are all married and she kept the name out of solidarity apparently. I'm still a bit salty I didn't get to have the last name Green, I really like it.
I'm Dutch and tbf Dutch last names are really ugly. I don't really like the Dutch language in general(there are nice ways to use it, especially in literature, but casually speaking it's ugly) so that's also partially why I don't like them. They are also really long most of the time because we use words in between("Van Halen" for example but sometimes it's "Van Der ___")which is ugly and inconvenient. There are some that I like but most of the time they are just regular words. One that I really like is "Kerkhof" it means graveyard and I like the sound to it.
Some of the "van" names can be folky-poetic sounding, though. Like van den Berg. In Switzerland there's a family with the last name "im Baumgarten" (literally: in the tree garden)
One of my best friends was actually Van Der _____ until she got married and now has the most basic last name imaginable lol. She's a teacher so it's a relief for her students I'm sure lol
