[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No. Why would I?[/quote] These are the stupidest types of posts ever. We know nothing about you- anonymous poster- so clearly no one can answer that question for you (nor are you impressing anyone with your feigned obtuseness as to why someone might make a choice that had traditionally been and remains most common among married couples.) Just to provide a counterpoint I’ll share a few reasons why I personally chose to change my name. 1. I knew I wanted kids and wanted our family unit to all have a shared last name 2. Hyphenated names seemed overly complicated/pretentious 3. My father was a deadbeat and I had 0 desire to remain connected to him in name 4. We take multiple international flights per year (sometimes just one parent with kids) and having the same last name makes the security process less complicated 5. I objectively liked the sound of DH’s last name better 6. I’m a traditionalist at heart[/quote]
