I love my last name, it translates roughly to "those people over there past the tree"

Would have made moving quite an issue for your ancestors, though ๐Ÿ˜„

Seriously, also I wonder if there are peoples with the same surname that aren't in my family tree, cause I am sure it's more of a name of a village than a family. Keeping surnames is so weird though, very weird feudal tradition and honestly I think having a unique last name is more interesting in general. My partner changed her name to something unique she's the only one with that surname. I kept mine cause I think it's just so interesting, but part of me wishes I changed it, if not drastically then to the feminine version of the name as the language it's in is gendered.

One of my life goals is living in a house over a hill where the specific tree from my last name is planted.
