Keeping Ms. Instead of Mrs.

vlaughead

I am taking my husband's last name because I like his last name better. 

But, I really want to keep Ms. and not go by Mrs. I know that other people may call me Mrs. instead of Ms. or write Mrs. instead of Ms. on envelopes. That's fine. I have a sense of humor about things.

Is anyone keeping Ms.? Are there any pioneers out there like me?

I kept my last name and the Ms.

Balletdawn, you are even more of a pioneer than I am.

naaah, I'm just too old and attached to my name. And lazy. And we're not having any kids together.

I'm a Dr. and he's taking my name (professional legacy and we love the name way more). We'll be a Dr. and Mr. couple. :-)

I want to do the same thing.  I know people will say Mrs., but that's okay by me.  Eventually though, we will be Dr. and Dr.!
