Saying Goodbye to the 'Dubs

I will miss the big W, the 'dubs, the initial that defines my last name.  I plan on taking Mike's last name when I get married and I will dearly miss my unique, yet long and frequently misspelled, last name.

Hyphenation is not an option, as my maiden-name is ten letters long.  Combining the two surnames would result in eighteen letters.  I do not wish that on any of my hypothetical children.
I will instead move thy dear ol' W to my middle name...which will make my already long name even longer, but I don't care. I need the W.

My last name was good to me for so many years (28 and counting).  Sure, it lead to a little bit of teasing, but mostly conversation starters, as in "How the heck do you say that?" and "Where's that from?"
What's more, sporting the initials VW lead to "borrowing" VW hubcaps, receiving them as gifts, wearing VW memorabilia, and secretly coveting a VW bus for so, so  long.  I want a DC United soccer jersey not because we live in DC, but because of the VW logo.  I love representing myself with the letters V and W. 

I need a way to keep this VW alive, and perhaps permanently ingrained in me.
I'm thinking of another tatoo, here.
The risk excites me!
(but I'll probably chicken out.  Mom, you can breathe a sigh of relief now!)
