Ahhh congrats again! And BIG UP on choosing a whole new surname for you both - what a lovely idea. It's something I was hoping to do if I ever take the plunge! Goldsmith is nice - people may assume you're Jewish but let them. Wolf is cool too, and actually I think Zoe Wolf sounds really cool (not even too indie!). Surnames beginning with B that I like include Brightwell, Best (because it means you're the best), and Bowen. But I guess Zoe Bowen is a bit too rhymey. Ahhh it's all so exciting! Can't wait to hear what you choose :) xxxxx

I always wanted to be called Best but I wouldn't have the nerve as purposely changing your name to Best may well give people the impression you are a knob...

Haha, I don't think it would! I think it's common enough as a surname that people wouldn't judge. It's not like you'd be changing your name to "Zoe Fabulous" or "Zoe Thegreatest" (though the former would be hilarious/awesome).

I like the name Wolf.

Congratualtions! The ring is beautiful and you both look well happy :)

Wolfe. Like Virginia.

Although I admit you'd have to spell that to people.

Awww, congratulations! :D

Goldsmith sounds like an MP/my slightly dull primary school music teacher.

Find something people can spell from hearing it, but still makes them say "sorry, what?"
