I’ll be getting married late this year, will be bringing up the subject of last names very soon. My fiance’s family really sucks. Well, his mom’s side, anyway. His grandfather is a serial adulterer, his mom is a trainwreck in every way one could be. I have no desire to perpetuate his family name. At the same time, I’m very traditional and I believe the wife should take her husband’s name. So having him take mine, or use a hyphenated name is not on the table. I’ve come up with a compromise, and that’s to take his middle name as my last name. Perhaps suggest that he change his middle name to his last name, for the sake of our names matching.
What do you think of this? Weird? Reasonable?

It's fine, why don't you like the idea of using your last name though? I never got why it was such a big deal to people

Just my personal traditions. I'm from the south from a very traditional family. Women should take their husband's name.

That's fine if it's your personal thing but you can fuck off if you judge other couples for it, especially if your only argument is 'but it's tradition!!'

Wtf? I never said anything about what you ought to do. or that I judge others for their choice. You asked my opinion as to why I want it the way I do. Calm the hell down.
