Title. Just curious about your guy's opinion. I am having this discussion with a group of friends.

Hey, I believe in God, man. I've seen him, I've felt his power. He plays drums for Led Zeppelin and his name is John Bonham, baby!

Not a problem for me, if I get to that position.
Having your wife take your family's name is kind of a northern Europe thing. East Asian cultures don't do it, Arab cultures don't do it, and Spanish cultures double-barrel it. It's not a universal norm in the way that having kids take the man's name is. Wife's name is more flexible.

I have two last names. My wife took both.
In some relationships the man stays home while the woman goes out and works, so in that case as the woman is the breadwinner, it makes sense that the cuck in question would not have his woman take his last name.

When it comes your time to die, be not like those whose hearts are filled with the fear of death, so that when their time comes they weep and pray for a little more time to live their lives over again in a different way. Sing your death song and die like a hero going home.

I don't think I'd care tbh. I know I wouldn't want to deal with the hassle of legally changing on passport, DL, bank accounts etc.

1- JFL at getting married
2- even if it weren't the dumbest idea on earth, no, she can keep it.

I don’t know is it not customary to have your wife delete her middle name and then make her last name her new middle name
And then take your last name?
So like her last name is still represented but as an addendum
I don’t know but I mean with my global favor and interest I think it would be dumb not to but I wouldn’t make a big deal about it
I mean?
My last name is Selvaggio
Which?
Translates from Sicilian to
From the Wild, born of the Wild, or the savage ones
Which I think is sick
Selvaggio sounds a lot like savage because these are all
What is phonetics

Probably not.
If you think about it it's just some long running tradition. If a guy is that insecure it would bother him that much maybe the soon to be wife should reconsider.
Would it be my first choice? No, I'm a bit of a family traditionalist. If it was that important to her and I loved her and her reasons were sound I'd be OK with it.

Would NOT.
But then again the relationship would never get to a point of having that conversation. If she was the type of girl who wants to keep her last name and everything that type of sloot entails. Would have smashed and ghosted her from the start.

The woman almost never takes the last name of the man. its not done here. Now if I was marrying an American girl and that conversation came up, she better have a damn good reason for not wanting to take my name.Would NOT.

The act itself is irrelevant, I just feel the kind of female that would do that is the kind of female I would not want to spend the rest of my life with. Depends on intentions I guess.

Just looking at the marriages of people I know whose wives didn't change their names, it's not a good idea if you're any type of traditional person.
Obviously there are plenty of cultures around the world where this isn't common, and in these cases I could completely understand. But in the US, if a women isn't willing to take your last name, you'll 100% be treated as some type of cuck and your wife will not respect you how a wife typically should respect a husband. Some guys don't seem to have an issue with this, but deep down you know they're crying a bit inside.

Nah I wouldn't take her seriously if she said that. I would keep one foot out the door and be looking elsewhere.

My wife is a southern conservative Christian, so that was never an option. I'm not as conservative as she is, but I still don't think I would have married someone outside of traditional/cultural norms like that.
We've been married for twenty one years.

the trend these days is to have hyphenated last names, losing their family lineage and heritage is not something everyone is comfortable with so its a more realistic approach...especially in families where there are not enough male children to carry family legacy forward.
the commitment to the marriage and child raising are more important things....i know plenty of young couples on my ******** where wife took the last name and 2 years later they divorced and she switched back her last name so everyone figured out they broke up....last name isnt some iron throne which cant be moved and means forever and ever.
if it still bothers you then tell her, in the first few years most people avoid it as its just lot of hassle administratively and usually wait till passport or drivers license is about to expire.
Last name change can also affect mortgage application or any credit/lending because name change can take a while to reflect on credit records so another reason couples delay it.

Also women in the west don't follow Middle Eastern norms or traditions on marriage. I have never met a woman who had fairy tale fantasies of anything other than the weddings we are accustomed to seeing here. Maids of honor, flower girls, throwing bouquets, etc. When a woman picks and chooses which of those standards and practices she likes and which ones don't suit her sensibilities, there is obviously a reason for that, and you make your judgements accordingly.

Mine didn't even ask, she just took my last name.
On a side note, we went to a wedding recently and the couple decided to merge both of their last names. I'll use usernames for reference, but imagine SamsBolton and Nonsense getting married and they become SamSence.

I'd ask her to voluntarily take my last name without me signing the marriage documents before I'd ever consider getting the government involved in any relationship of mine.
