Me again haha!
I really love the idea of me and FH having the same last name so I'm personally dead set against just keeping my last name because I don't want us having different last names after we're married.
Initially, I was against the idea of double barrelling as it's a bit of a mouthful (we'd be Statham-Watkins) and thought I'd just take his last name as is tradition.
Howeverrrrr, due to all the dramas with FMIL, I now really hate the idea of being Mrs Watkins - just like her. (Although, I think she is Ms Watkins now as FH's parents are divorced but she didn't change her name back.) My mum had different but equally draining issues with her MIL, and did regret not double barrelling herself so I'm a bit nervous I'd feel the same. I'm also feeling a bit sad giving up my family name and my identity... but maybe that's normal and will pass?
My brother suggested I get FH to change his last name to mine in a real feminist move, but I think there would be utter chaos in his family if we did that as it's so bold and so non-standard that it would come across as a real "we hate you" move (and I don't hate his dad, who is lovely, and the rest of the family have been very pleasant towards me/us).
Basically now I'm erring towards suggesting to FH that we go for the double barrel, even though it's a mouthful!
What's everyone else doing, how did you decide?
