Emma Walton Hamilton: Hello, my name is Emma Walton Hamilton. It was originally Emma Walton, and I married Stephen Hamilton, so I am now Emma Walton Hamilton. The reason I used Walton, besides the fact that I'm loyal to my dad, and to my English family, is that while I think Emma Hamilton is a lovely name, there was actually a character in history by that name who was the mistress of Lord Nelson, and I don't want anybody to be confused which Emma Hamilton we're talking about here. So, I'm Emma Walton Hamilton.
