Brangelina. Kimye. "Combined names" are a key step in becoming a celebrity "it" couple. But regular people all over the U.S. are doing the same thing. And making it legal.I recently read about the phenomenon of married couples legally taking a smushed-together — or otherwise completely invented — version of their last names. Smith and Johnson become the Smithsons, for example. It's sometimes called name blending or name-meshing.I started asking around: Had anyone else heard of this?Turns out, a ton of people had. Almost everyone I asked knew a couple who had done it officially, done it unofficially, or at least thought about it.It might sound kind of odd, but there are a lot of great reasons modern couples choose to do something like this — everything from gender equality (FTW!) to giving the kids a fresh family identity to make their own. Here are seven forward-thinking, creative, and diverse couples who chose to use a combined name, and why they did it.1. Carla Cole + Brian Martin = the LatimersThese two turned to an unlikely tool when they decided to combine names: an anagram generator."We wanted a family name to share with the kids," Carla says. She says they almost had guests at their wedding vote on their top five favorite names. Instead, they wound up choosing on their own."We dropped our middle birth names, moved our maiden names to our middle names, and added the new last name," she says. And lived happily ever after.

Blair Eckenrode + Megan Christensen = the EckensensWhen Eckenrode and Christensen got married, they had some understandably complicated feelings about the institution.Questioning the long upheld standards of marriage gave the couple a lot of freedom to define their own union how they saw fit. The first thing to go? The historic coverture laws that originated today's commonplace tradition of a woman relinquishing a part of her identity, her name, and assuming her husband's."We are a family, and we share every part of our lives with each other, and we also desired to share a name," Blair says. "So we got creative and here we are — a nontraditionally created name for a 'nontraditional' marriage."3. Sally and Ryan Stauffer = the ElainskasWhen these two first got married, they did what Sally calls "the normal thing," and went with her husband's last name of Stauffer. A few years later, Ryan had a confession to make — he wished they'd gone another route."In the end we decided to combine Gaelic to represent his ancestry and Polish to represent mine," Sally says. They chose words that loosely translated to "people of art," plus a few tweaks to make it easy to spell and pronounce, and suddenly they were the Elainskas. Their families have had mixed reactions, Sally says, but there's only one thing that really matters: "I couldn't be happier with the decision and with my perfect partner!" Photo by Maico Pereira on Unsplash 4. Sonia Abrams + Stephen Moss = the Abramoss kidsWhen these two tied the knot, they both agreed it'd be best to keep their own last names. The kids? That was a different story."We both felt a little weird about not having a little bit of [both] our names in our kid," Sonia says. That's when they got the idea to combine, and Abramoss just felt like a winning combination."My dad did not like it at all, but I think he got over it," she says. "It feels neat to have our kid's' names be a combo of ours, since our kids are a perfect combo of the two of us."5. Sara Kunitake + Jonah Horowitz = the Horotakes"Sara has a very strong attachment to her family name. She’s the last Kunitake grandchild, and she hesitated to give the name up," Jonah says. "Also, she has invested a lot in building her brand professionally as Sara Kunitake and didn’t want to have to rebuild as Sara Horowitz."So they merged to become the Horotakes. "We really like the sound of it and it merges our Japanese and Jewish heritage."6. Jesse Rauch + Lissa McManus = the McRauchsFeminism has been an important thread throughout Jesse and Lissa's relationship."As our relationship deepened, I felt it was important to be completely equal in our relationship," Jesse says. "We both wear engagement rings. I didn't get on one knee — so we looked each other in the eye."Jesse says most people are really supportive, or even jealous they didn't think of it, but his parents keep asking, 'Are you really doing that?""They may need more time," he says.7. Ash Russell + Crystal Fields = the RocketshipsThat's right. Meet Mrs. and Mrs. Rocketship.Ash says the couple talked a lot about "how neither of us were really attached to our family names and how it would be nice to share a name once we were married."Her alternative? Pick something random, but meaningful. It got the couple talking about their shared love of outer space."We joked about Lightyear, after Buzz, and then one of us — probably me because I am nothing if not overjoyed at being obnoxious — said, 'We should just pick something random ... like, rocketship.' And it just stuck."From there, the paperwork was a breeze, and the Rocketships became the coolest family in the solar system.This article originally appeared on 8.11.17

It's no secret that everyone parents their children differently. Heck, even within the same house children are parented differently based on their individual personalities and social–emotional needs. So most parents understand that every family operates differently than their own but that doesn't stop some people from expecting their rules to be followed by other people outside of their family.One mom found herself feeling a bit confused and likely frustrated after a recent flight with her preschooler. She and her 3-year-old were on a two hour flight enjoying some in flight entertainment in the form of an iPad. This seemed to be a problem for another family on board the same flight who also happened to have a preschool aged little boy with them. The other family's child noticed the little girl's iPad and decided that he too needed to have his iPad. The only problem was, the boy's family decided he could not use his device while traveling which left him crying for the girl's tablet. Instead of the parents of the little boy giving him his tablet, they requested that the other mom take the tablet away from her child and put it away. The mom of the little girl refused to take the tablet from her child to accommodate the other family causing the little boy to cry most of the flight according to the frazzled mom on Reddit. Of course screen time is a hot button for parents with some parents demanding to be screen free until a certain age and others appreciating the time screens provide parents to get things done around the house. woman carrying baby while sitting on gray seat Photo by Paul Hanaoka on Unsplash Experts weigh in on screen timeAccording to the Mayo Clinic, screen time for children younger than 18 months old should be avoided unless video chatting with relatives or friends. Otherwise, there should be no screens until after that age when high quality shows and such can be introduced with supervision up to 24 months. But for preschool aged children the recommendation is to leave screen time to one hour or less of high quality programs with parental supervision. Two psychologists who are also moms discussed screen time when traveling on the podcast "Securely Attached." They both agreed that each kid is different but one mom, Dr. Emily says, "I think you really have to adapt to what the needs are. If you have a really long flight, your kids are zoning out." Before adding, "I’m okay with them watching movies. I’m less with them doing a video game for hours and hours and hours that again, I might just be old and I think that’s more analog." girl sitting on chair Photo by Patricia Prudente on Unsplash While the two children whose parents were in this mile high standoff over screen time both fall into the one hour or less category, these children are not from the same family. Every parent has different rules around screen time for their children and some see traveling as a place to bend their own household rules a little to make sure their children are as occupied as possible in an effort to not inconvenience other passengers. People chime in to support mom's choiceSince the mom who originally asked if she was wrong for refusing to take away her child's iPad was starting to second guess her choice after noting the other family giving her dirty looks, Reddit users emphatically supported her decision. High Five Sesame Street GIF by Moonbug Giphy "If they don't want their kid to use a tablet on their vacation, they need to be prepared for meltdowns like this while he develops the ability to understand that other people will have different rules and experiences than he will. I feel for them, I know how hard it is to travel with a cranky toddler, but that's simply not a reasonable request to make of a stranger," someone shares with the mom."I think the big benefit to iPads on flights is that you can download near unlimited activities and don’t have to bring anything else that takes up space! I own a Kindle and while I do prefer reading physical books, when I travel I don’t have to worry about reading my books too quickly because I can just download another! Like bringing a puzzle and a book and a game and markers and paper vs bringing one device that has all of those things can absolutely be beneficial for a flight/trip especially if you have young children and also need to pack snacks and diapers and sippy cups and all the extra stuff adults don’t need," another adds. Happy Dance GIF by Xbox Giphy "It's different before kids can read, I think. At 3 they can't just sit and read or do a puzzle, you have to actively do it with them and their attention span is short. Which might be fine for a 2 hour flight but isn't going to work for 5 or 7 or 12. Breaking it up with a few episodes of Bluey on your phone isn't going to hurt anyone and is considerate to your fellow passengers who don't want to deal with a toddler bouncing off the walls with boredom," one person writes. boy sitting on chair beside table using tablet computer Photo by Kelly Sikkema on Unsplash Overwhelmingly parents and non-parents alike agree that this mom did nothing wrong by refusing to take away her daughter's iPad. Others suggesting that the parents who chose not to use screens should have been more prepared with activities, "Exactly. It's fine to not want your toddler to use a tablet but you have to give them other activities. When we traveled as small children, we had lots of books, coloring books, little games, snacks, etc. planes are boring for all of us, especially children."There you have it, planes are boring for everyone, so being prepared with boredom busters if you're avoiding screens can be beneficial for all involved.

They are not entitled to any of our hard earned money. The government has no right to the money that you earn. You are free to do whatever you want with your money and don’t need the government’s approval. The government does not “allow” you to work so that you can have the privilege of giving them your money. You are not debt slaves or serfs. The people have the power, not the government. Trump is showing the people that he is going to starve the beast. He’s going to continue to propose more “no more taxes on….” as we get closer to the election. Trump is waking up the American people to the theft that they have endured their entire lives while also exposing the government’s complete corruption. The democrats are trapped. What will they do? Condemn Trump for allowing middle class Americans to keep more of their hard earned money by saying it will raise the government debt? That clearly helps Trump focus the argument on who owns the money. The American people or the government. That’s a huge win for Trump. Or will they join Trump like Kamala recently did by announcing that she too is for no tax on tips. Trump wins if they do that too. They would only be helping him educate the American people on the fact that our money belongs to us. Period. Win/Win. So what are some possible tax cuts coming that Trump might announce next? I’m not sure, but it sure does seem like this is a planned roll out that will help Americans understand that federal taxes are unconstitutional and going away in his new administration. The Rothschilds controlled global debt system is being dismantled before our eyes and the enemy has no way to stop what’s coming. Power back to the people.

Beginning in the 2020 election cycle in which ultimately Trump battled Joe Biden for the presidency, Ryan Routh of Hawaii made 19 donations to Democrats through ActBlue, the Democrats’ fundraising platform, according to Federal Election Commission records reviewed by Breitbart News. Routh’s 19 donations were small — the largest only $25 to Beto for America, a political action committee supporting Beto O’Rourke’s ill-fated presidential run — and totaled $144.40. Those donations supported Democrat candidates as diverse as Elizabeth Warren, Andrew Yang, Tulsi Gabbard, and Tom Steyer.

He’s registered in North Carolina as an unaffiliated voter. In North Carolina, unaffiliated voters can choose which primary they want to vote in. Routh chose Democrats. The News and Record had a 2002 report about a Ryan Routh who barricaded himself inside United Roofing and then faced charges including having a “weapon of mass destruction” because they said he had a “fully automatic machine gun.”   According to the NY Times: In the interview, Mr. Routh said he was in Washington to meet with the U.S. Commission on Security and Cooperation in Europe, known as the Helsinki Commission “for two hours” to help push for more support for Ukraine. The commission is led by members of Congress and staffed by congressional aides. It is influential on matters of democracy and security and has been vocal in supporting Ukraine. According to the NY Post: He advised Biden, 81, in an April 22 X post when he was still running for reelection, to run a campaign around keeping “America democratic and free.” He claimed Trump wants to “make Americans slaves against master.” “DEMOCRACY is on the ballot and we cannot lose,” he wrote, a similar slogan commonly used by President Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris. “We cannot afford to fail,” Routh continued. “The world is counting on us to show the way.” While he had been in North Carolina, he relocated to Hawaii. What isn’t clear is how he knew Trump would be there at that time at the golf course, since that wasn’t on Trump’s public schedule. That raises even more questions.
