[quote=Anonymous]Single, never-married woman in my 30s. Just piping up with no actual experience in this matter. If I ever do marry, these are my thoughts. I have an established byline in my maiden name, so would keep it professionally. I would give my kids my husband's last name, and also take it on personally/legally unless it was truly terrible (e.g. Hooker or something of that nature). I am also the last of a 'line' so I would probably legally dump my middle name and become "Jane Cooper Yates" and consider giving my children the my maiden name for their middle names (if they were girls) or as their first name (if they were boys) as my maiden name is of the vein of the 'last name as first' trend that is happening now (e.g. Cooper, McKenzie, Smith, Jackson, etc.)[/quote]
