I have to admit that my Maiden name wasn't anything special - James, but Kaye James has a better ring to it than Kaye Keen, the latter is such a mouthful. lol We did argue about it quite a bit when we were planning to get married as I wanted Hubby to change his Surname instead and become Daniel James, I was even willing to compromise and choose a completely different surname, but he wouldn't budge and I got lumbered with Keen. lol Louise - I think Pritchett-Sharpe sounds good, sounds Posh. lol Kaye x |

My Surname is Walker, but I shortened it to W on here, as its not really relevant to my family tree. |

My married Surname is Keen and I don't like it - prefer my maiden name - and have just seen Louise Sharpe comment that she doesn't like her married surname of Sharpe either. It got me wondering how many of the rest of you don't like your married names - or even the one you were born with? Just being nosey lol Kaye x |
