“I’ve found that that’s been really powerful in creating ease, intimacy and trust in my relationship,” Williams said, explaining that he took an astrology class with his wife, which helped him to learn more about their “dynamic” as a couple.
Williams — a former Heisman Trophy winner and NFL rushing leader — said his wife is an attorney, but his All-Pro résumé and fame would sometimes create an “imbalance” within their friendship circles because “people would forget about her.”
“One of the ideas that popped into my mind was I can take her last name,” Williams said. “I think it’s cool. It’s somewhere where we can both win.”

Anyone that believes in Astrology is a certified idiot.

So was his name Williams or is that his new name?

There is nothing demeaning at all about a woman taking the last name of her husband. A woman should be honored by the gesture of her man giving her his surname. Also a woman does not "lose her identity" when she does so.
Complete hogwash and obviously driven by the feminists.

She’s an attorney, and he hasn’t played in 10 years. She probably earns more than him.

His old name was Williams, but he also says that isn’t really his father’s name.
To: Lurkinanloomin
Errick Miron is new name.

During an appearance on the “The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz” last week, Williams — who retired from the NFL in 2012 — explained that he changed his name to Errick Miron, to take the last name of his wife, Linnea.
Williams went by Ricky throughout his illustrious NFL career, but his actual birth name is Errick.

When the son of a friend of mine got married a number of years ago he took his wife’s last name. She is an only child with no other male relatives to carry on their family name. When she dies, the family name dies with her. So they decided her husband-to-be would take her last name and now they have 2 sons to carry on the name. He comes from a large family with 4 brothers to carry on their name. I always thought that was a nice thing to do on his part. And astrology had nothing to do with it.
To: nickcarraway
so do they pay more attention to he now???
