Who's keeping their last name? Who's changing it completely? And who's hyphenating both?

    I changed mine completely.  I love having his last name, makes it feel more official - if that makes any sense! Tongue out

    I was trying to get him to take MY last name... hahahaha.. but he won't. I may hyphenate because I don't like the sound of my first name with his last name. The two don't mesh well. But I dunno.

    LMAO Lynette! My dad tells Craig all the time he needs to take my last name.

    I wasn't going to take his last name at all because my grandpa, my dad are V's (last name). But I figured, I love him enough to marry him, I love him enough to take his name. My dad calls me Jen (Craig'slastname) when he gets jokingly mad at me. So it's all good, I suppose.

    ... If I make political history in my country though it'll be "The V(...) Commerce Law" or "The V(...) Economic Theory". Jussayin XD

    We havent officially changed anything but I am unofficially Beatriz M****** V******. The M is my current last name and the V is his. I am a big daddies girl and I can;t imagine not keeping my last name in some sort of way.

    keeping mine; my father passed away when I was younger, and I feel that's my only connection.  Plus it's been with me for 29 years, I got anxiety whenever I would think about changing it.

    I was anti losing my last name and taking his b/c I loved mine and didn't care for his but as soon as I became his wife all of a sudden I wanted his name. It's weird.

    I haven't changed it legally yet but I changed it on Facebook and we all know Facebook is really as official as it gets!

    I'm dropping my middle name I think and keeping my old Last as a middle.

    I kept it. Our kids will have his last name and mine without hyphens (double last name, like Helena Bonham Carter)

    I am reluctantly taking his.

    Hopefully I will feel like Jaime and be excited about the change once we are married....

    I thought I would be gung ho to take on his last name, but it's been over a year since the wedding and I can't bring myself to do it. I think I'll do it someday. Maybe.
