we are also not married**

my boyfriend and I decided to take my name since there are no boys in my family to carry on my last name and it would die with me, everybody is different and id just talk it out with him and figure pros and cons out together!!

In my beliefs I believe the baby should have his father's last name. My husband wanted me to hyphenate my name when we got married so our kids could have both our last name. But having two last names, a middle and a first is just too much. It all comes down to what you guys want for your baby.

I did it with my oldest I regret it now. I feel that a child should always have his father's last name.thats what made me regret it.
