[quote=Anonymous]It is weird. I didn't change my name and my kid has husband's last name. Out of 20 kids in her preschool class for two years straight, 50% of moms had a different last name from dad, but (no joke) 100% of kids had dad's last name or hyphenated. We think through the decision about whether to change our names when we get married, but still default to the societal norm for our kids. We did the same. My kid has my last name as the middle, but 99% of the time she is First HusbandLast. We decided to do it the other way around First HusbandLast MyLast for a second kid, and it was actually husband's idea to do it that way, but alas secondary infertility got in the way and we're one and done.
