After Chris and I became serious in our relationship and had Joshua who of course took on Chris' surname of LIDDIARD. I have thought, discussed with people and many times researched changing my eldest daughter Amelia's surname who shares my surname of GRASSICK to LIDDIARD.
Amelia never took on her own fathers name of DAY due to he and I being too rocky in our relationship at the time of Amelia's birth. I also didn't like the sound of my daughters name being AMELIA DAY because to me it sounded like some sort of celebration instead of a name for my little girl to carry.
I now have 3 kids to Chris who of course all carry his surname and part of me very much wants to change Amelia's name to match her siblings, but then another part of me feels guilty about changing her name to another mans name that biologically isn't her Daddy. I know that he has been there since she was just a few years old and has been really great with her especially recently, but it just feels strange that I was never willing to give her the name of the guy that helped to create her but have no issue giving her another guys name.
I don't expect comments to this blog as it was more just me venting to get it off my mind.
