101. Name Change Question

     

     Discussion by dontbeaturd · May 2018 · Home› Wedding Discussion Boards› Wedding Customs & Traditions Forum

     My fiance is planning on changing his last name to match his mom's last name (falling out with his dad, etc...). Does anyone have any ideas on how long this will take? I'm assuming the process isn't the same as what I will do when I change my name after the wedding. As you can tell by my ticker, we are about 3 months out.…

102. Thoughts on Name Change

     

     Discussion by mlp041010 · March 2010 · Home› Local Wedding Boards› Michigan-Grand Rapids

     I am just wondering what everyone is thinking on changing their name? Are you staying the same or changing and why? If you are changing, how are you changing it (i.e., change to his, hyphenated, keep maiden as middle & take his, etc)? Have any of you (or know someone) who has kept their name and just added his last name…

     Discussion by Barakins · September 2009 · Home› Wedding Discussion Boards› Wedding Customs & Traditions Forum

     I am getting married next June to my English fiancé. We are going to live in England, and I plan to take his last name as my own. But I've been hitting a bit of confusion as to how to do it, as I also have a 4 year old daughter (who will be 5 at the time of the wedding) who Ben (my FI) will be adopting. Currently, my…

     Discussion by nurse2be2011 · August 2010 · Home› Wedding Discussion Boards› Wedding Customs & Traditions Forum

     To start off this is my first post. I have lurked some and responded to some stuff. I have gone by my middle name since I was born. I was named after my mom but my dad said it would be too confusing to have two people going by the same name so I went by my middle name. Now that I'm planning on getting married I am thinking…

     Discussion by langstrg · April 2010 · Home› Local Wedding Boards› Tennessee

     Hi Y'All, In preparation of all my name change materials, I came across a website that mentioned to LEGALLY change your name, I need to file a Petition to Change Name with the county (I'm in Shelby county if that helps) or state. I thought just changing all of my records (Social Security Card, Passport, License, etc) was…

     Discussion by jchristel · September 2010 · Home› Local Wedding Boards› New Jersey

     Hi Girls, I know a few of you have done this easily and some have stated having problems. Can you please tell me which social security offices let you do it & if you had issues anywhere else? I'd really like to keep my maiden name as my new middle name and take Dean's last name, I'm reading that it technically requires a…

     Wow, this one's a doozy. Here's the deal. My finacee is based in Germany and will be until 2012 - so I am supposed to move with him (the plan is) about a week after we get married, we're going to fly to Germany. I wanted to change my name immediately after I get married. Currently, his driver's license is in a different…

     Discussion by npales · September 2009 · Home› Local Wedding Boards› Pennsylvania-Pittsburgh

     I wanted to post a follow-up to name changing. I learned some things, so I hope this can help someone in the future. It is a fairly easy process if you know where to go (I didn't) and what to bring (I did). -Social Security: They need a state-issued ID (license works) or Passport and your Marriage License (with a seal). I…

109. Last Name Change - FI Upset (long)

     

     Discussion by emmmbeee · May 2011 · Home› Wedding Discussion Boards› Wedding Customs & Traditions Forum

     I've read a lot of posts on this board regarding views and opinions on last name changes. I think that everyone has excellent points on why they do/don't change their name to their new husband's. I made the decision long ago that I don't want to change my last name and it's not a favorable decision with my FI. I guess FI…

     I'm not changing my name. I did not want to change my name with my first marriage, but I was young and stupid and thought I "had" to. Now I'm older, wiser, and want to keep the same name as two young children. I may change it when they are adults and then again I may not, because I don't see why a woman has to go through…
