[quote=Anonymous]I changed my name and yet I still think of myself individually as Jane Maiden Name - but collectively with my spouse and children we are “The MarriedNames”. I moved my maiden name to my middle name and write my name in full - so it functions like a hyphenated name since people pronounce the whole thing as written. I think of it as the best of both worlds - I maintain my maiden name for my work email and when it suits me but otherwise my legal name aligns with my kids for simplicity. I know people will come at me and give all the reasons that having a name separate from my kids is no big deal and not an issue - but I have ADHD and I prefer to avoid even the most minor administrative speed bumps in my life.
