Not sure if this was posted already but I saw that Nyeem Wartman decided to honor his mother for Mother's Day by adding her maiden name to his name. He will now be Nyeem Wartman-White. Below is his post where I saw this...
"This year I decided not to get my mom anything tangible for Mother's Day. I decided to go to another extent of showing my appreciation that I will be changing my last name to Wartman-White for her, making my name Nyeem Wartman-White. I watched this wonderful woman provide for her own kids and others people children when she didn't have to. Because she and my step dad work so hard to provide a roof and clothes on the backs of my little sisters, she can't make it to all my games causing her to watch. Since she was the one who raised me my whole life I feel she has the right to see her last name on the child she has raised and provided for. I want her to feel appreciated every time the announcers say my name and when the journalists write articles about me. My family is my motivation and she deserve this, love you momma and happy Mother's Day."
