I dont like the fact that my last name is too confusing for half the poeple I know can even say my last name. It's way to hard and long to say. Is anyone else like this?

My last name is Yevdokimov [Yehv-doh-key-mov]

I like your last name, really..Why you don't like it? If I am not wrong, apart that is undoubtedly Slavic, it's Russian and very distinctive. What would you say about the too frequent surnames like Smith, Rey, etc. I behold them as boring..Written in Cyrillic looks like that Йевдокимов I suppose.

Have a great day!

Although it's a non-English (Russian?) name I think any person with any intelligence should still be able to pronounce it.

Americans have a tendency to like short surnames as shown by surveys. However, there are still many British and American lastnames that are long, even exotic, like Abernathy, Amundsen, Delahanty, Duchovny, Fotheringill, Foxworthy, MacClellan, McConaughey, Hathaway, Llewellyn, Pennington, Richardson, Rockefeller etc. so, on top of all this, I wouldn't worry too much about 'Yevdokimov'.

Actors , singers and disc jockeys are often encouraged to change their names but unless you plan to go into one of these professions, I'd leave your last name just the way it is.
