If your fiancee had a non-american sounding name, would u take his name upon

[Halo Mom]

Well, technically most last names in America are from some where else

I do not think that would be a problem

I was born with an Irish last name, I am married with a german last name
The irish last name is way more common and well know
The german last name, is not, and you need to spell it for people
I do not think there is a problem with the last names
Both are non American last names

Interesting question.

I've thought about this, most recently when a newlywed caucasian friend was telling me she kept getting weird looks when she introduced herself with her new Asian last name.

I am marrying soon and I am taking my fiance's last name which is of the same nationality as my own. I believe it is important when establishing a family that you share a common name. However, I would not take a foreign sounding last name as my own. But, I also would not be marrying someone of a different race in the first place, I've always only dated and been attracted to people of similar origin. That is my personal preference. On a professional level, I could care less what colour your skin is, what your native tongue is or how hard your last name is to pronounce.
