his last name or yours

[Autumn252]

Who's last name is your baby gonna have and why? And I also wanted to know if the decision is solely our decision because I'm having second thoughts about letting my baby have my boyfriend's last name.

my first baby has my last name and her father's last name because it was my decision. He was so upset when he seen the SSN card, he was mad his name wasn't at the end, he felt it was a middle name, plus he hates my family so he didn't want our baby to have my last name. But I love my last name it is special to me. Hes slowly getting over it but Now Im pregnant with his second baby and he wants the baby to have only his last name.

I gave my son his father's last name, and we'll be doing the same for our daughter. We figured I'll have my boyfriend's last name once we get situated, so we'll all have the same name :)

My son took his father's name. We hadn't been together long when I got pregnant and neither of us was sure how things would work out. It wasn't that important to him but it was to me, it seemed only right and fair that his baby have his name. That baby is now 3 1/2 and as of a month ago I share that name now too :-)

I gave my son my last name. I told his father he could if he wanted his last name, it had to be changed by kindergarten. If I was a man, I'd want my SON to have my last name. We aren't together anymore, but I'd have still changed my son's name. However, I'm from a family of 4 girls & after my child's father heard my father speak about not having a son, my son's father decided to let our son keep my last name because there wasn't any males to carry it on.

My first two have my maiden name, and not my Ex's...mainly cause my children were the first grandchildren on this side. This one I'm expecting now will actually have my FIL middle name as his last name.

My little man will have my husband's last name. Its important to him & not to me, my father's brother has 2 boys, so there's no responsibility for me to carry on the family name.

Its all your decision. My first has my ex's moms maiden name because his last name was ugly and so we just went with his moms side of the family families name. My son is almost 6 and he understands its still a family name and names don't make you family because he asked about everyone's last name. This baby with have my bfs last name I wanted him to have mine for something forbmy dad but instead we just gave him my Dada name as a middle name.

You could always hyphenate the name and have both.
