My surname is kinda gross and I've always wanted something fresh. What's wrong with taking your wife's last name anyway?

Can't really think of any reason.
My last name is Finn which I like.
My first name is another story in Japan.
My name is Elliot and backwards spells 'Toille'.
I won't elaborate, hopefully you will know what it means in Nihongo

分かりました。ｗｗ 
So do the Japanese tend to call you トイレさん?
On a slighty similar note, they always tend to call me Kame. I used to write my name as 亀論 too, but katakana ain't so bad. Katakana is seen as cool for names anyway, perhaps it's because all the American movie stars and singers all have katakana names, i dunno.
Pronouncing my last name produces the same sound as scratching a blackboard with your fingernails. My dad will probably get cranky if (when) I change my name but as with all things he'd get over it.

No, but a few students landed themselves in the corner for going overboard;-)
Most in Japan tend to call me Elliot'o' that's with an O on the end.
Elli-chan sounds to feminine
