For me a name doesn't matter... I dated a white girl with a hard to pronounce name, I'm French so names with Rs or Hs can be hard... I couldn't get it so I asked to have her a nickname!
Separate story, my name is Ali... one night at a bar a pretty girl approached me and we got to talking... about 5 mins I asked her name, she asked mine... and snapped at me for being a brown guy, she stormed off cussing and screaming... well funny thing is I'm not brown... I was just named after Muhammad Ali the famous boxer...
Fun times
I probably won't date anyone with the name Amy. I might be okay if it's Aimee, though. My sister's name is Amy, so I would have trouble if it's spelled the same. My sister won't date anyone with my name, and will call all other people with my name by their last name. I would probably date a Michelle, because even though my mom's name is Michele (because her mother was French-Canadian), I don't associate her with that name. She's mom to me and my sister and Micki to my dad, her mom, and her siblings. Other than that I don't think I would turn down dating anyone based on their name.
No, but I would not take a last name I don't like. I think if I ever get married, the ring and the living together would be enough for people to realize we're married. But if it's important to him that we both have the same last name, then okay, we take whichever of ours is the better one.
Points if it has a cool meaning (mine doesn't), sounds cool (mine doesn't), or gives the better initials.
Jup I have. I once approached this guy we talked a bit first, cause I forgot to ask him about his name and then he says his name is Tim and I immediately wished him a great day tho and went...
I don't date people who have the same name as past guys of mine.. never ever lol I just can't do it, it's not about them but more about what that name means to me or meant to me lmao

I've never done that with a last name, I did it once with a first name as a girl that was into me had the same first name as my sister, she liked me but we didn't have a connect plus the name being my sisters kinda made me feel weird like how would I introduce them without it being weird? I don't know maybe it's just an immature part of me that I'm yet to get over. But last name is no prob in my eyes.
I have when it comes to naming potential children. Names are important and should have an actual meaning. No cars, no brand names, no scents, no names that put them on a stripper pole. If you can’t explain its significance and you are firm on naming your child one of these names, you not the person for me.
Cheers
I have done that. I knew a girl once and I thought her name was too "Southern," so I didn't like her because of that. Lol (Sorry!)
s I refuse to date anyone with a name starting with J… they’re always toxic and/or fuckboys 😂😂 from personal experience anyway.. never met a decent guy with a name starting with J.
Yes I would. If he was an ugly surname I would reject him because I will carry the surname of a person I am seriously considering for the rest of my life. I would like to add that I hate surnames ending in "oglou". These surnames very ugly and sexist.
No. Even if I don't like his name, why would I reject someone I like over something so petty and insignificant? What's more important to me is whether I'm attracted to him and there's chemistry.
I don't like my last name and would hope a girl never rejects me for it
cause one point it says Jewish (Ashkenazic): from German, I don't what it means I would never reject a girl cause of her last/first name, I don't do them things
I haven't but I might if they had a last name as something like a curse word, such as the C word or F word.
Otherwise not really, dating is always about how we get a long not what my last name will someday be if I take his.
Yes if the first name was the same as a ex that I had bad memories from, or if it was the same name as a relative.
If she had the same name as my mom or aunts then I would because I don't want images of those people in my head when being intimate with someone. Other than that it shouldn't matter.
I've never done that, but I will say that when I was dating, if they had the same name as a male family member, there was a 0% chance I'd date them lol
No, not exactly.. but meeting a girl named Sarah would raise some red flags for me.
No, first names don't matter and I don't judge people by their relatives, so last names are equally unimportant
I reject anyone with the same name as my ex husband. I know it isn’t fair, but I just can’t deal with it.
I have a good friend whose last name was one which caused him considerable teasing in school. He married a woman who took his name.
I once had a boyfriend whose last name was "Glascock". I used to call him "Brittle dick". He loved it, always laughed.
I rejected someone with the same name as my dad once. To be honest even if his name was fine, he wasn't my type.
I don’t know. I mean there are some names that would have probably convinced me to keep my maiden name.
In India it's really common, here last name represents your caste, so people openly rejects other people due to their last name. And it's not considered shallow at all. It's more like lower caste people should behave themselves and know their place coz they're gonna get rejected mostly BC of their last name.
For me personally: no :D I‘ve never cared much about names.
