My mom called in a tizzy one day. Folks at home didn't know what to do about my name. I remembered recording the gifts my brother and sister-in-law received because I made many snide comments about each gift having been monogrammed. Apparently karma was about to hit because my mom needed to know what initials we'd have, since his last name is a double last name.
Tradition is to have one letter, because tradition is to have one last name, as the center of the first and middle name initials. So I then had to have a discussion with my future husband. Do we cut out your mom's last name or your dad's last name for the sake of our monogram?
We voted and I added a note to our website. But I guess folks thought since we were progressive enough to legally keep both his parent's last names as our name, they then had questions about my middle name.
Will I keep my middle name? Or will my maiden name become my middle name?
