501. Name Changing - After the Wedding

     

     Discussion by Knottie9479976 · May 2014 · Home› Wedding Discussion Boards› Wedding Customs & Traditions Forum

     Hi everyone! I am getting married in November & really torn about whether or not to keep my maiden name. I was wondering if I could get some thoughts or advice from the community! My maiden name is very, very common, which is great because it makes me almost un-google-able, and I love the internet privacy. My fiance's last…

502. Honeymoon/Name Change - What I decided to do . . .

     

     Discussion by ktelizabeth86 · June 2012 · Home› Wedding Month Club Boards› October 2012 Weddings

     I know this was a recent post and I'm glad that it was, because I honestly had never thought about it before then. Since we're taking our honeymoon in December, I don't want to risk my passport not coming in with my new last name. I did call the service number on my passport and they weren't helpful at all. The lady there…

     Did anyone have a problem with changing your last name? I feel a little sad about losing my last name and especially being an only child. Let me also mention that my last name is changing to Swanson...just like the Swanson dinners. Fi hates when I say that! :)

     So my FI is changing his last name to mine for various reasons. Well he got on the states website to check out the process for having this done. It is insane! If I were changing my last name I would just have to go to the courthouse and sign a few papers. The process for him changing his last name could take months…

     Discussion by picksthemusic · October 2009 · Home› Local Wedding Boards› Washington-Seattle

     So I'm changing my name (haha, it still feels so weird, but cool!), and I'm filling out the SSN form. Now, it asks me to sign my name. Do I sign with my maiden name, or my new name? I followed what I did for the marriage license and certificate, which was to sign with my maiden name. What did you other OMHs do? :) Thanks,…

     Just to add, you may want to order two originals as some places (like SS, passport, etc) require an original. They mail it back to you but its possible that you will need an original for something else, like the bank, in the meantime. You have to check with each credit card, bank, student loan, etc. to see what they…

507. Changing your name?

     

     Discussion by mrsandmrsbins · August 2009 · Home› Wedding Discussion Boards› Gay Weddings

     Co-Bride and I are planning on going to get our marriage license next week and still can't decide what to do about our last name(s). We are either going to hyphenate or keep our own. Part of me thinks a name change would be a big hassle, but then I really like the idea of having a *team* name, expecially for when we have…

I'm not sure if you do your last name due to marraige and another change to your name if you can do it in one process but here if what I've…
