Not a bad idea!!!!
Thank you. Welcome to Free Republic ... newbie! LOL ; )
A few idiot telemarketers can't even pronounce my first name. They think I'm French or something.
So which one of you is going to foot the bill for me to change my name?
I'll call my attorney first thing in the morning to start the paper work.
I'm a stay at home mom, who knows her priorities with money. The last thing on earth I'm going to do is waste a couple hundred bucks to do something to change something DOESN'T bother my husband in the least.
If one of you that doesn't like hyphenated names for married women wants to foot the bill for me, GREAT, if not STFU with your broadbrush comments about it. And most of you are men I consider friends, and you probably had no clue that I had a hyphenated name or the reason behind it until tonight.
I see you didn't ping the person to whom me and CD first responded...LOL
OK, OK, I accept that in your case your accidental hyphenated name is a mistake you made.
For further clarification, all of my above comments apply ONLY to those women who CHOSE to hyphenate.
So There.
I am going to rag on a guy who takes her name though. That's who I was ragging on.
I was'nt speaking to you ms twit....but your hyphenation is showing.
I love talking to ladies who know their husbands are wonderful, regardless of what last name they use!
I would love to go back to bringing some $$$ into the household now that our daughter is in school fulltime - but I like knowing that I am the one that meets the school bus every afternoon. Finding a job that would permit that is a bit difficult in the rural community where we now live.
No one around here (except DMV and the election board) cares that my "legal" name is hyphenated, I'm either Miss Gabz (it is actually my nickname that I have had since I was much younger than my 6 year old) or Mrs. hislastname.
Ye see Gaelic second names would solve this problem.
My second name, O'Connor is Ní Choncubhair...meaning daughter of Connor. (Alright, me da's name is Eddie...but the Ní means daughter of). My brother is O Choncubhair (meaning son of). While my late mother would have been Cáit Bean Úi Choncubhair (meaning wife of). So none of this old double-barrelled shite would have been necessary in Celtic days of old.
Your CURRENT last name? You planning on changing it? I've only had one last name since I was born.
Your cute when you are mad :-)
A mite tetchy, ain't ya? LOL
I read back & understand your reasons for it.
My first cousin's wife is a meteorologist on the Weather Channel and uses her maiden name because that's what she started out with in TV.
My beef is with the feminist reasoning that's likely behind many if not most of the hyphenated names out there.
I still agree with Xenalyte's #24 and don't have to like the concept of hyphenated names, but that doesn't mean I don't consider you a friend or think anything less of you.
And that's all I have to say about that. Merry Christmas!
Hey woman. Until tonight I thought you WERE a MAN! *LOL* ;-)
Your bro-in-law took his wife's family name? Does he wear pants?
I was differenting between my name and the Gaelic version.
i totally agree, CD. gabz, your name isn't really hyphenated in the sense that people are meaning on this thread. someone with a hyphenated last name USES IT ON A DAY TO DAY BASIS. you have an oddball quirk on a few documents is all. i totally agree with xenalyte, hyphenation is obnoxious. and xskids rag on it when they see hyphenated names on the backs of opposing teams hockey jerseys too! a number of my female friends are doctors and lawyers. they all took their husbands name. and they are, to a woman, strong and self-sufficient.
ROFL!
I want to see the picture of the flying Guinness glass at the next CPAC.
Picture? You'll just have to come and see it yourself. WHACPACSACPAC.
Darlin'.......you've known me long enough to know where that comment was directed.
