People baffled with woman's bold choice to take on fiancé's last name
A woman still plans to take her fiancé's last name, despite the fact it is the same as her first name. A coworker of the woman shared that her name is McKenna and her partner's surname is the same, meaning when they get married her name will become McKenna McKenna.
In a Reddit discussion about couples who share similar monikers, a coworker of the bride contributed the story about the woman which was met with shock by others in the forum.
Elsewhere in the discussion, other commenters added their own stories of people they know who share a name with their significant other.

In response, many people had their own unique stories but one in particular caught the eye of many in the forum.
'I don't want children staying up late at weekends - I really need adult time'
The person wrote: "I don’t but I have a coworker whose first name is her fiancé’s last name, and she’s taking it.
"This time next year her legal name will be McKenna McKenna."
Many people raced to comment on this unusual choice which would see the person have the same first and last name but people were impressed with the boldness of the decision.
One person stated: "That’s amazing. Bold choice."
While another stated: "She should change her name to just McKenna."
Elsewhere in the discussion, other people shared their own experiences of similar names as somebody else noted: "I knew a Carol W, who married someone with the last name Carol. She was Carol Carol. She chose that though."
A separate person penned: "I used to work with a woman named Robin Robins. I always wondered why she didn’t keep her name or at least hyphenate it."
In response, somebody added to this: "If I had the opportunity to repeat my first name as a surname I would do it in a heartbeat."
