When I filled out the forms to volunteer at the hospital, they were very confused about my name. In Mexico names are passed down differently.
If we lived in Mexico, the names of my children (married or not) would be:
Bethany Reed Fagg
Ryan Reed Fagg
Brittany Reed Fagg
Ashley Reed Fagg
Carrie Reed Fagg
Lindsey Reed Fagg
If you don't like your last name, you can't marry someone to change it. Women keep their name, or they add de Peterson at the end. But the legal name would still be Bethany Reed Fagg.
Pretty fun, huh?

Thank goodness we live in the States! I like my name now, no one ever commented on my name before.
Wow, Lindsey Brooke Reed Fagg de Harper? Somehow that just doesn't have a ring to it.
No, it doesnt. Good thing you don't live in Mexico.
Hey, thanks for the redo on my blog. I LOVE IT!
Hi mom. I hope you like your new blog, because it was really easy. I don't even do anything anymore, I just get online templates. Okay well I did make your header. I guess I'm the family blog-makeover-er.
And it's not a new haircut, I just had an updo in that picture. I do need to get my hair cut soon though.
Love your updo! Love my new blog as well!
if names were passed down that way your name would have been wagstaff and not fagg, right?
Right. But I still would have married dad.
