Made an online acquaintance with a college professor whose last name was Noone. Kids would see her name in the course catalog and call to see who was teaching the course if "no one" was listed.

Where do you live? If in the USA, how about Catalan for a surname?

Try these websites:


Behind the Name: Catalan Surnames

I like Vilaró, Abelló, Andreu and Mateu from this list.

Or

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cate...guage_surnames

How about Casals ( after Pau (Pablo) Casals)?

Do your family research and pick out a name from either your mom or dad's side that you like. Modify it a bit if needed.

Sorry forgot to answer, I live in the US

And thanks for that suggestion but as mentioned I am changing my name due to a family tragedy, meaning, I cant use any of my family names...
