     Discussion by metalkp · September 2009 · Home› Local Wedding Boards› New York-New York City

     I have dreamed about having a new name for most of my life because I hate my last name. And my fiance's name is great. But now that it's finally here, I have to admit to feeling a little apprehensive and even sad about changing it. I mean your name is like your identity, and you've had it your whole life. It just feels so…

     We recently got married, and I want to change my last name to my husband's. I called City Hall in Philadephia where we got our marriage license, and they said there's no official government name changing form, but that I have to change it at each individual place (Social Security, DMV, etc.). Does anyone know for sure if…

     Discussion by Patineuse1124 · June 2010 · Home› Wedding Discussion Boards› Students

     I was just wondering what others were going to do in regard to name changes. I'm a PhD student, and have already been published so I don't want to completely give up my maiden name (even though I've been waiting to get rid of it forever, it the type of name that gets you picked on). I'm leaning towards making my maiden…

     For all you married ladies out there, I have a question about changing your name after the wedding. I am interested in making my current last name into my middle name, as I thought most people did. However, I had a friend just tell me that (at least in PA), you can't do that without a court order. Is this true? If so, is…

     I've read quite a few questions about changing ones name after the wedding, but I have yet to find anyone ask mine. So here goes... My fiance doesn't care for his last name, and to be honest, neither do I. My family thinks it's wierd for him to take my name. So we gave it some thought and we want to take on a whole new…
