I tend to think my last names are mine.... i have had them since the day i was born, and since i have two last names i am the exact product of two people creating something of themselves... wow i'm getting too deep

From a practical standpoint, one thing to consider is that if you travel, if your kids have different surnames than you, (Assume that just Mom is travelling with the kids, Dad stayed home) a worst case scenario could be that the Passport Control Officers of the other country could think you are abducting the children because the surnames are different and for that reason, they don't believe that the children are yours. It could potentially happen.....
whenever we traveled out of the country when my sisters and i were under the age of 18 my mom always carried our birth certificates with her - it names both of the parents on there so obviously one of those names matches her passport - they couldn't argue with that.
