Just to add...
My mundane husband (who is also my SCA husband) took
my mundane mother's last name of Ralston as it would
have been in the Tudor era "de Rolstoun." It allowed
us to reconcile our persona's, how they met and
married and so on.

The human language is like a cracked kettle on which we beat out a tune for a dancing bear, when we hope with our music to move the stars.
