[quote=Anonymous]I married into a culture where the woman doesn't change her name and the kids get the father's last name. I had never planned on changing my name anyway and didn't have strong feelings about passing on my extremely common Anglo last name to the kids. So I kept my name and DD got DH's name. I don't understand why more women don't do this since it took exactly no effort on my part and has never caused any sort of problem or confusion. Because I make all the appointments and reservations and such, DH (who is clearly an immigrant with a thick accent) gets called Mr Anglolastname much more often than I get called Mrs Ethniclastname.[/quote]
