Neither was man created for woman, but woman for man. - (1 corinthians 11:9)


And the LORD God said, It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him an help meet for him. - (Genesis 2:18)


For the husband is the head of the wife, even as Christ is the head of the church. - (Ephesians 5:23)

I agree with you but I was not created for grandpa of grandpa of grandpa of him. I was created for him.

It's interesting reading about different cultures cos I had no idea that the husbands first name is used in some cases!
Of course, Yes, and that only makes sense, using clan names sound like bringing another man to life.

I'm a big fan of tradition, so my future wife will take my name.
