I am so proud of my heritage & the fact that my dad came to the US to make a batter life for himself & his family, I didn't want to lose my family name completely. Dad was thrilled when I told him that I was legally making it my middle name.

My parents didn't give me a middle name when I was born, but when I was in 8th grade, I decided I wanted a middle name, and I wanted it to be my paternal grandma's name. So my parents helped me do all the paperwork to legally give me a middle name.
I didn't change my name when I got married. I still use my maiden name. It's been 6 years. I just couldn't bring myself to change my name.
