Knowing your ABCs is essential to academic success, but having a last name starting with A, B or C might also help make the grade.

    Damn, my wife and I were on the fence about which last name to give our son or to hyphenate.

    Hers is C mine is R, but if we hyphenated it’d be almost 20 letters long and use every vowel. So we went with my last name from just tradition.

            The only reason the headline shows for you is because that’s the link title and Lemmy’s default UI automatically displays the link title. But that is not actually part of the post content, and so it does not federate. This also doesn’t display if you aren’t in the thread’s page, e.g. the home page. The title you gave the actual post is not informative at all.
