Hyphenated feminist stupidity, or what to do when hyphen-boy meets hyphen-girl
It’s an IT guy’s worst nightmare, the last name that doesn’t end. Robert
DiMarco Salvatore-Maurielllo marries Antoinette Klaplonski LaTorracca-Bogdanowicz.
What name goes on the first born son’s birth certificate?
Guiseppe Alfonso Kaplonski-DiMarco LaTorracca-Bogdanowicz-Salvatore-Mauriello
doesn’t fit. Trust me, I code this stuff every day. You can’t make the field
big enough, not if you ever want to print it on a standardized form.
Instapundit
brought insufficient mockery to the fawning, almost apologetic
NPR report so I thought I’d add my own database administrator’s perspective.
Knock this shit off.
The hyphenated name craze was unsustainable from Day 1. It’s feminut claptrap
wrapped up in political correctness – keep your last name, and his too!
– but don’t think too hard about the ridicule headed your child’s way.
Because feminists need children like a fish needs a bicycle. Aborted babies
don’t have names, right?
But a funny thing happened on the way to the clinic. Motherhood,
it’s primordial. And when push comes to shove, no one wants her kid getting
beat up on the playground.
But at the last minute, faced with yet again trying to squeeze her own
hyphenated names onto a form, Sasha balked.
Instead, their daughter got just one of mom’s last names, hyphenated with her
dad’s, and two middle names.
The end result: Shannon Bayard Cronin Harris-Taylor.
My database drops those middle names; you get an initial. Pick B or C, it doesn’t
matter to me. Your Social Security Number is your unique identifier anyway.
I don’t really care what name you call yourself by;
you’re just a number to me. But if you want your name to look pretty on
the forms, keep it under 29 characters. Truncation, it doesn’t discriminate.
