I actually have a somewhat serious question about this. I know a guy who had a really bland and boring surname so when he got married he took his wife's name. The thing is, she's from an ethnic minority and he is not. Am I wrong to think it's weird for a white person to change their name to a minority one but not the other way around? A Huang changing their name to Smith feels normal but a Smith changing their name to Huang just feels appropriationy.

Just abolish surnames altogether. No reason to have them

As the nuclear family withers away and is replaced by more social relationships and parenting, I imagine keeping one's surname will become more common just out of practicality.
what if instead of Michael Keaton, it was Michael Penis.
Michael Beanis, even.
When I changed my name I decided not to have a middle name cause they're kinda dumb and my parents didn't have them either.. I'll probably put my maiden name there if I get married.
Our last name should be an assigned number counting from the first ever human to you.
There should be some game played in which the winner decides who keeps the surname. They can decide what game is played.
