[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 727281, member: 1550"] There is a place here for horrendous last names. My maiden name is so strange that my own family isn't sure how to pronounce it. On the first day of school each year every teacher stammered over the name as the class laughed. It was embarrassing. My first name, which I loathe, was rarely used. Instead I got called various mean take offs of my last name. That was actually worse. I married twice. Both times the men had nice last names. That isn't why I married them of course but it was one less thing my kids had to deal with. As far as I know there is only one other family in the U.S. with my horrible maiden name. If I had been a male, I may have changed it legally..especially since I had no strong ties to most of my family. [/QUOTE]
