Need Advice from the Male and Female perspective:

Situation:
How would you feel if your future husband ex-wife kept the married name, then she got pregnant (proof that its not your b/f kid), and she gives the child the last name?
If the male?
How would you react? and If you found out she was pregnant would you have asked not to use the last name?

If Female?
How would you feel towards your b/f not asking the woman not to use the last name to name the child? And if you didn't ask him, How would you react if he didn't take the time to do it?

The only thing is that i understand but to me its a little weird, and its bothersome to the guy since its not his kid you know. I told him he could just request her to just give the child her maiden name and its because the child doesn't have a father, it can really cause some problems in the long run. Specially with cases of child support, Since they already had a child together. In my opinion i wouldn't give my child the last name of my ex husband if its not his. Though of course it be a lot easier for paperwork. But it isnt really an issue.

Quite honestly, as long as she is not butting into your relationship and causing problems, I wouldn't let it worry you. If that is her legal last name, it only makes sense to give her child the same last name she has. It makes things much easier for paperwork really. I can see how it would be a little weird but I wouldn't sweat it. It is just a name.

Wow, that's a little weird. Is she still hung up on him?
