I would honestly prefer a long new last name, but then I would feel terrible for our children lol having to write the full last name “Brouhard-Gunstone-Lopez” but still something I’m thinking about bringing up to the hubby

Short! My current last name has 9 letters and a space between the first and last part of my last name, and my new one will have a mere 4 letters.

It's the same. But it will be easier to pronounce. My last name gets butchered.

This one is exciting for me because I dont currently have a middle name so I plan on adding 1 as well as taking my husband's name. So long would be my answer.
