I think it's great there is a way to sign up to SL and choose a last name. I wish it had never been taken away in place of display names and instead gave an option to choose either the display name function or last name or something along that line. Last names to me at least help define who you are, I am Stormm FIrecaster, it helps to add a realness that just doesn't seem the same as just Stormm for me though I did grab Stormm when the display name occured, I just find I do not identify with her as I do Stormm Firecaster. May sound a bit weird but...well I am weird. lol
