Meh, anyone who feels the need to scold me about it is a jerk who needs to mind their own business. I have my reasons, and it's not like my husband would have cared if I had decided to stay Anon Holmes instead of becoming Anon Hislastname.

For the most part, I love my new name- it sounds awesome with my first name (better than my old one did, in my opinion, which took some doing) and it's just different enough without being difficult to spell. But there was always something kind of cool aboout reading a Sherlock story or watching a Sherlock movie and being a Holmes myself, and a small part of me will probably always miss it.

I'm planning on changing my entire name when/if I get married or within the next couple of years. I'm hoping to move out of my hometown sometime soon, so I'll probably legally change it then. Too much of an effort to get all my relatives and friends to call me by a different name. I despise my entire name. I plan to take my (future hypothetical) husband's last name even if I do change it now. Screw the name change haters. Haters to the left, yo.

I kinda understand where you're coming from on the Holmes thing. My last name is reaaaaaaaaallllllllllyyyyyyyy unique and I got so excited to see a published author (only 1 I've ever seen with the same last name as mine) with the same last name that I bought his entire series of books (pretty good ones too!). I might miss that a little b/c of that but my name has nothing but bad memories associated with it for me, so I think I'll be happier to get rid of it.

And any want to be parents reading this, please quit naming your kids after a relative. My mother named me (female) after my father, got divorced when I was 3, and all I think of every time I hear my name is how much I despise my father for essentially abandoning me and all the other shit he pulled. I also don't appreciate having a male name either.

Oh man, totally with you on the naming kids after relatives thing. My dad is named after his dad AND his grandfather- they didn't even give the guy a middle name. He always hated it, and when my brother was born he was very insistant that his son would have "his own name."
