I'm seriously considering taking my Fiance's last name when we get married next April. Of course, we are both devout non-conformists and I haven't made up my mind on the issue yet, nor will I probably until I have a discussion about it with my parents.

The thing is, She asked me to consider this becasue she has one sibling, a married sister, and if she were to take my last name then her family's age old Scottish name would effectively end. I have two Brothers who can carry the torch for my clan. Hyphenation is another option we are considering, but that just seems too cumbersome too me.

Strangely enough, the thought of taking her last name is appealing to me, but my chief concerns are with my parents feelings on the issue, though I know the decision is ultimately mine to make.
