My ex kept hers as a middle name for professional reasons. She has remarried and still has my last name as one of her middle names for professional and parental reasons. I say whatever! It matters not at all to me.

How do you feel about a woman keeping her maiden name after marriage? Why? how do you feel about a woman keeping her husband's name after divorce?  At first I was upset, then it made sense She kept it so my daughter wasnt confused why Mommy had a different last name i still have my ex-husband's last name. i did it for the same reason. but now, that entire situation has changed. my daughter now has my maiden name, and is legally my sister. is it worth paying to change my name now??? i dont think so. I would fight to the death if she tried to change my daughters last name now...THat wont happen How did your daughter turn into your sister? my parents adopted her a year ago due to my financial struggle. she knows the whole truth, though. she's 8---learned to read when she was 3. she has read all the court documents and knows it was not an easy decision, but the best for her. |

Women should the man's name! Because women will take everything a man has anyway, so why not take his name? Hey? Aren't you the hairy virgin who couldn't get laid because that girl you brought home was hairier then you? That was a week ago. You failed to mention the part where the two of you got married, then she sued you for divorce, and you are broke and homeless now.  things happen fast, Jist.It was while you were on your mass posting frenzy. |

I think she should keep her maiden name. Our names are who we are. I would never change my name for anyone. I have told my daughters the same when they got married but they took thier husbands names then after divorce they finally went back to their names just to get remarried and change them again. I might even go one step farther why get married if you find someone you love and things are going good why ruin it with marriage. The only reason I can think of for getting married is if your having childern. after I got divorce after 41 years of marriage I wanted my name back too but just like most guys my wife wanted everything she could get including my name and the shirt off my back.there should be a law they cant keep your name after divorce.

I don't know about anyone else, but I'm looking forward to changing mine someday. did it twice and back once..not doing it again. I never know who I am anymore Well yeah, if I changed it twice and it still didn't work out, I probably wouldn't either! |

I'm a traditional man. I come from a long line of traditional men. I don't see the taking of my last name as letting go of my wife's past, but an embracing of our present and future. If the tradition were the other way around, then fine, I'd drop mine and take hers. The bottom line is that in a marriage you become a family. And families typically have the same surname. If the taking of a husband's last name is such a big deal, then why stop there? Let's just drop the whole pretense of marriage altogether? I know I'm exaggerating the subject with that statement, I'm just curious as to when the discarding of perfectly beautiful traditions will stop? I'm a very traditional woman. Almost sexist in many ways. But in this, it is my choice. In a union of two lives, both should have say in what happens. There are no sons in my family... why is your name staying the same while mine has to change? Why don't you change yours? And a tradition is only viewed as beautiful if both people entering the union see it as so. I do not see this as ugly, merely archiac and pointless. And one-sided. I see your point of view, believe me. And I respect it completely. And truth be told, I'm not sure how I'd react if I was faced with that scenario... Oh well, I guess in the long run, you have to consider what's really important... (proof that I do have a flexible opinion, apparently?????????!!!!!) |

When using the quote.. you can delete all but the last reference. This is what I mean by "cut down".

I think when you get married, you should take your husband's last name. What is the point in getting married if you don't even want his last name? Maybe cause you love him, but his last name sucks?

After divorce you have alot less income so you dont worry about paying taxes and owning any property. I hate to sound bitter but walk in my shoes and you will feel the pain. a marriage contract is one you should think alot about before getting into one. like they say till dead do you part and they really mean that you will be paying your x for the rest of your life. you young guys really need to think about what your getting into before getting married.
