    Of my last name!! Unfortunately, I have a couple years to go haha. Or more. >.< Probably the thing I'm looking forward to most is having his last name, though...we already live together and whatnot, so that won't change. He calls me his wife from time to time too. But I think that the biggest change will be having his name and being able to get rid of mine!! Mine isn't awful, but it doesn't go very well with my first name. His name is a lot better. And his parents always say how I'm already a "*his last name*" and it makes me sooooo annoyed that I can't change it sooner! Haha. Just a little rant. I know some people are really attached to their name, but I've been looking forward to changing it for years. I've just finally found the right guy to really make the change with :) So I'm even more anxious!!! Anyone else more than ready to change their name?

    I'm excited to change mine! Even though my first name goes better with my last name now, I'll be glad to be part of the same name family as my guy. Its also easier to say, spell and its pretty to write :P

    I feel strongly about not changing my last name and am looking forward to keeping it and possibly giving it to my future children :)

    I'm getting super excited too. I already went through a name change years ago due to family issues -- I dropped my last name and held my middle as my last. Well, now I've gone through years of having a "weird" last name (people ask for my last name and I tell them, and they say, "No, your LAST name," and it's getting annoying), and I'm super ready to have a *normal* last name again. Especially cause I think his name is pretty cool. But I'm really looking forward to taking that step of having the same name, I think it's very significant and it means a lot to me.

    I'm on the border of indifferent and I rather keep mine.  I've been so used to mine of course and its just such a hassle.  But its important to him.

    I'm looking forward to it! My last name isn't terrible, but it's not awesome either. I guess his name really isn't awesome either, but I like it and I'm sick of my current last name, lol. And I'm excited to share the name with him :)

    I looked forward to changing mine, although my first name is very Italian/Spanish (depends who you ask) and his last name is Polish.  Sounds kinda weird.  But it's starting to look right now.

    I almost cried when I was talking to my sister on facebook one day and realized we didn't look related anymore though.

    I voted other. I'm sad to stop using my maiden name and I'm not willing to lose it completely. I'm going to be moving my maiden name to my second middle name and taking FI's name as my last name.

    I was excited to change it - not because I dislike my madien name but because it was meaningful to me to share DH's last name.

    I cannot WAIT to change my last name. His last name flows better with my first name and it is so much easier to spell. I hate my last name. Plus it is meaningful for both my FI and myself for us to share his last name. BUT it is deff going to be strange and will take some time to get used to it!
