I will preface this with saying I know it is daft and not life changing in any way. Funnily enough yes I do have bigger things to worry about, and I know this is really not the end of the world. I'm just wondering if this would bother anyone else or not at all.

We bought dps wedding ring today. It was second hand as the price of gold is mental now. We have no problem with second hand jewellery at all. It fit perfectly, was just the right style and width etc. Brilliant price. All good.

We got home and looked inside it. It has a woman's name engraved inside. My stomach just dropped and I was gutted to be honest. The jeweller said nothing about it which I think isn't really on, but we obviously didn't look closely enough inside.

How would you feel? Would it bother You? Am i being completely stupid letting it bother me at all?

I wouldn't be happy with the name either.

Fwiw, my wedding band is second hand. When dh and I married we were very short on funds having just bought a house and I spotted the ring in the jewelers window.
We've been married very happily for 22 years.

I can't believe you didn't notice that.

It would bother me. A ring is symbolic so its symbolism of someone elses name in there. I would take it back and have it taken off if possible.

I'd get it sanded off. If they can't do that I'd return it.

What does a Lucy look like out of interest? HmmSmile

Failing removal make lucy an acronym for something. L.u.c.y

I didn't mean that he would OP. I just wouldn't want the potential to have any sort of history like that attached to my wedding band. Bad vibes n all thatm
