A woman finds herself in a big dilemma: her husband’s surname has a really disturbing meaning and she doesn’t want her children to carry it.
While the perfect first name can be hard to come by, when it comes to the last name, there’s nothing you can do about it. For better, but also for worse… It is therefore important, when choosing a first name, to think about combining the two! Some first names can have really disturbing meanings once they are associated with the surname. We know that children can be very hard on each other in the playground, it is therefore better to avoid giving a first name that could be mocked.
This is all that a young bride wants to avoid even if she does not yet have children! Indeed, her husband has a surname with a connotation that can be judged as vulgar or obscene, and she does not want her children to wear it for fear that they will be laughed at. She does not specify whether she took her husband’s surname or not after marrying him. She doesn’t really know how to broach the subject with her husband… So she turned to Reddit for Internet users to help her start the subject with the first concerned. Her last name is “Butt” and in English it means “buttocks”…

The woman does not know how to spare her future children
The woman behind this message has already thought of all the possible solutions but as she explains in her post she does not know if he will take it badly: “My husband’s last name is Butt. Can someone help me explain to him why this last name is not ideal? I completely understand that we can’t protect children from everything and I understand the whole issue of parentage, but frankly… Am I being unreasonable in suggesting that our future child take my name, a mix of the two, or a new last name?“ In the comments, Internet users understood the concerns of the woman and suggested that she leave on a mixture of the two surnames or only on her own. To see now if the husband will accept this choice, even if let’s be honest, it could be very difficult to wear for children, and even for adults!
