My last name is also Ukrainian, but it's so unique! And to be honest, it sounds better with my first name than FH's last name! :P</P><P>But I would like to take FH's last name cause I'm a little traditional that way, so I've just decided to hyphanate. Yeah, it's longer.. but it makes me feel important having a longer name! heheSat, 28 Jun 2008 10:56:10 GMTmindybhttp://forums.canadianbride.com/Topic416754-11-1.aspxMy last name his ukranian and hard to pronounce.

So I thought about hyphenating my middle name but this just looks like my last name is hyphenated and could cause problems.</P><P> I have no real attachment to my middle name and dont use it so why not just get rid of it all together and replace it with my maiden name?</P><P>Im sorry if I am rambling but as you women know this is a big step in life and a BIG change...</P><P>I asked my Mom and she said it wouldn't bother her if I got rid of my given middle name and that she thinks my Father would be happier if I kept my maiden name in there instead of my middle name.</P><P>My maiden name has 4 letters and so does my new last name along with my middle name as well so it wouldnt change the length at all. Also, when I think about middle names they should have some significant family tie or hold some value to the parents (IMO)</P><P>Sigh, I just dont know what to do. Any thoughts or opinions? :unsure:Wed, 25 Jun 2008 16:29:29 GMTTheHbride
