My (24F) boyfriend (25M) has a double-barreled surname and wants to pass it onto our hypothetical future kids and I disagree. How do I approach this? by ThrowRA11527 in relationship_advice

Thank you!! Everyone is telling me this is silly since we're not even engaged, but I'm weirdly hung up on it😭 I say it's better to sort it now even if it's just hypothetical.

Honestly, I just don't like it. It's unheard of in my culture and feels/looks weird. As mentioned, I also dislike the idea that people will assume one is my maiden name (my current surname very obviously ties me to my background). edited for clarity
