I would be tempted to keep my maiden name if his surname would just call out for mickey-taking! I married Mr Right - but his middle name is Always. Only joking, have been married 20 years to the right man, and I took his surname! Mandy :)

Well, I wouldn't break up with someone but would definately make it know that I wouldn't be changing my name if we got married! I once had a boyfriend when I was young whose surname was Bosomworth! So, so, so, so glad we weren't destined to be childhood sweethearts and get married! Wouldn't want to be known as Mrs Bosom! Amy x

I kept my maiden name (not that my husband has a weird name), just because I wanted to!!

And what about the poor kids which resulted from the marriage?? Think of all the torment they would have to face at school!

my eldest daughter,aged 23(yesterday) has been seeing this nice lad for a couple of weeks,but has dumped him solely because she found out his surname was..luvesit..as she said to me ..dad,i would be known as nurse luvesit.....so,the question is,would you marry a mr hitler,or a mr rasputin,etc? bryan.
