[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I haven't read 46 pages of comments but I am 62 and while I did change my name (easier spelling, I was young and hadn't done anything professionally except get an MBA) many of my friends did not change their names. And that was 30-35 years ago. This is not exactly a new trend.[/quote] Same here. Don't under the "new" part, as in women who have degrees or are already established in a career by the time they are married have tended to change their names in 30+ years. I think among middle class to UMC people it did become more trendy to marry early, right out of college, before the economic meltdown of the great recession. All my female relatives and friend who married younger during that more optimistic time period did change their names. No so much before and since. [/quote] It's sad that women need a degree to justify keeping their name.[/quote]
