That’s kind of funny. But still probably doesn’t affect their daily existence as a family. Pretty much nobody in my family has the same last name anymore. Some didn’t change when they got married, some did. Some did then divorced and remarried and reverted and then there are step-people with other names. And we are…

We got married last year and my husband took my last name. It’s so freaking awesome. We can weed out a lot of closeted bigots by their reaction, and gain quick friends who think it is awesome too. Such a simple act that speaks volumes about what we value.
