[quote=Anonymous]I changed my name and since I didn't have a middle name I made my maiden name my middle name. It didn't feel like I lost anything and I like the symbolism of our whole family having the same name. DH had no expectation of me changing my name but did like that I decided to. It seems our friends are a mix, probably 1/3 of the wives kept their name. The kids all seem to just assume mom's name is the same as the kids anyway. It's kind of funny to see what it's like to live with one name and then another. I didn't realize how often I was clarifying for people that I wasn't the religion/ethnicity they assumed based on my maiden name until I changed it. [/quote]
