morg... taking the last name can be tricky.
My friend who wanted to take his wife's name has the last name of Smith so he wanted to change for your reason.
My mom's maiden name was Przekup... which is a mouthful for most Americans and then she took my dad's name, Szilvagyi, which isn't much better. After the whole divorce, marry the new guy, and divorce again her last name is now Jones and she's loving it. Different things make different people happy.
Personally, I love my last name. It's great fun watching people trying to figure out who to pronounce it for the first time or how to spell it after just hearing it once.
