Should you Date Someone With the Same Last Name as You?

AlphaRed

I have this friend, who's just been looking at this girl on facebook and she's beautiful, and what can he say, he'd like to kiss her.

The thing is, she has the same last name as him.

She's definitely not a relation because we all know who we're related too. But maybe his great granddad had a brother and so distantly they might be related but they might not be.

Does having the same last name really mean you are related or could it be a coincidence?

If they were really really gorgeous what would you do?

Is the surname Murphy?

Would be worse if the first name and last name were the same, like Kelly Kelly.

I had an accordion teacher called Dermot McDermot.

I wouldn't date him, though. Too many buttons to press.

Adore them from afar while all the while stalking them on social media and stealing their kinky knickers off the washing line to masterbate into

Totes not incest if she's hot.

Genetically from the point of view of having children (which is where it's a serious problem), your great-granduncle's great-grandchildren are three steps away or something like that. There is no more genetic danger than marrying any other Irish person, name aside. Actually, if they're both Irish and from roughly the same area, odds are high they -are- distantly related in some way or another; Ireland actually has quite a low gene pool, hence high rates of genetic illnesses like cystic fibrosis in the country. There is no social issue with it though, but if they are worried, if something like that got to the point of kids, they could always get themselves tested for likelihoods of genetic disorders.
