Thank you, this will be useful. I usually go for double-barreled surnames using SimPE, but triple-barreled is a bit ridiculous, so this'll come in handy xD

That's such a great idea. How do you guys manage stuff like that? Just curious.

This is great ... Although I have a lesbian couple that I just married and was wondering if you could adapt this to make a hyphenated last name ..Meaning combining both last names into one like cheryl smith-jones ?? or if there is a way to do it in SimPE maybe ?

Oh this is just great! Many thanks for making this. Do you think you could make a hack that men won't get to wear the big 20 karat diamond ring on engagement? it looks so silly on them.

But whichever Sim is the one who "makes the call to the arch" - in other words, whoever is highlighted when you click the arch and invoke "get married/joined" - that's the Sim whose last name is taken.

So just be careful who you're currently playing when you click the arch.

Why did we need a hack for this?

Great idea, I like being able to have sims keep their original last name when they get married, was getting tired of going into SimPE and having to change them manually.
Thanks.

Thank you. I've always wondered why people feel the need to change their name when getting married.

This is great, I'd always hate it when my sims get married and they get her last name...always seemed weird to me! Thanks!!

This mod allows YOU to chose which last name is taken if any at all ....Some people like to keep the last name of the other sims as to have two different last names but be married this actually still goes on a lot today in the "real" world ...And still other times people often use a joint last name IE
smith-jones ....Im hoping there is someway to make the later statement possible but i like having a choice of not having to automatically have the last name as the person who did the proposing ! That is why we NEED this hack !

Well I love it. My wife plays the game more than I do and I had my first marriage the other day and was confused when the guy had the girl's last name. This will help out with that. Many many thanks.

Thanks, I hate that someone has to loose their last name when they get married, it makes marriage look like a passage of property to me. All my sims whose name starts with a B will use this :D
