Please help us decide how to combine our names!!!

To clarify, we want to know whether Read-Ross sounds strange as a surname, and if we just just stick to Read or Ross! What do you think?

Have you tried using those names around the house rather than just first names to see how it feels? So for a couple of days you could be like "Mr Read-Ross dinner is ready", "Oh, Mr Read-Ross have you seen my phone?". Using the name repeatedly in real situations may help you decide if it works for you.

Congratulations on your upcoming marriage! Choosing a combined surname can be a fun and meaningful decision. Both options, Ross-Read and Read-Ross, have a nice ring to them. Ultimately, it comes down to personal preference and what sounds best to you and your partner. Consider saying both options out loud and see which one feels more natural. You could also try writing them down and seeing which one visually appeals to you more. Remember, there is no right or wrong answer here. It's all about finding a name that represents both of you and makes you happy. Trust your instincts and go with the option that resonates with you both the most.

Ross-Read I think

Stick with your own surnames

Based on how it sounds, I would go for Read-Ross

Why don’t you combine and have road 😂 or ress or readoss or rossread xx

I’d say Read-Ross

View quoted message Personally I’d stick to one name but it’s personal preference
