Have you decided on your married name?

It was an easy decision to take his last name.

I'm not sure yet, I've been dead set on changing my name since I was little but I'm not sure if I should just hyphenate instead. His last name is Keegel, mine is Weston.... dilemma 🤦‍♀️

Yes ill be changing my name!!

I won’t be taking his last name. I like my name and I have a few credentials under it, and truly I just wanted to keep mine. When we have kids my last name will be their middle name

I will be taking his last name

I'm going to be hyphenating. I don't want to change my last name completely, I'm attached to it.

This was a debate on which way it was going to be as his or my name. He decided that my name would be the best to be decided. He changed his name to my family name after marriage.

I earned my Veterinary degree and have been practicing for 15 years under my maiden name. So I will be keeping it professionally but I will assume my husband’s name in my private life.

I am so on the fence about this!
My full name is really long, and my middle name is already hyphenated so I don't want to hyphenate my last name.

Part of me wants to keep my maiden name, but if we have kids I want to have the same name as them. He and I have discussed it and he doesn't want to change or hyphenate his name either! I've got about ten months to figure it out.

Taking his last name for sure.

Easy - I'm assuming is last name.

Here is MB we have a few options so I will be putting my current last name (can't change it until we get the marriage certificate which takes a few months..) as a second middle name and taking his last name

I've already changed as many things as I legally can though

Yep. I’m taking her name. I was never too attached to my own

It's been a really hard decision but I decided to take FH's name. I initially wanted to keep or at least hyphenate my name since I'm working on publishing my MA thesis under that name but hyphenating it becomes a huge mouthful. So I might change it but keep using my maiden name in professional settings. We'll see.

Easy peasy - i will be taking his name

I will be taking his last name. This was further cemented by the fact that my brother's girlfriend has the same name as me (different spelling though) meaning if they get married and she changes her name and I don't we'd audibly have the same full name.

I will be taken my FH name. This will not be a eay road. In quebec you can not take your husbands last name. But we are both first nations and follow federal law. So I will have to get legally married in Ontario and submit paper work to federal department. The thing is we are all set to get married in Wakefeild, Quebec. We found on officiant who works with natives and she will preform the marriage in ontario and handle the paperwork. Then we will do a walk though ceramony the day of the wedding.

I am not changing my last name, but happy to assume his whenever it comes out.

This was a little tough for me - but I decided to take his last name, and my maiden name is now my second middle name. Was considering not changing it on a professional level, but ended up changing it both personally and professionally and it wasn't as complicated as I thought (so far). I totally understand and respect any option for the couples - it's definitely a personal choice that isn't a simple thing to decide. For me, I just feel more "married" with us sharing a last name.

I will be taking his name. I have to renew my passport before we leave for our wedding so that will be the first shred of paperwork to change!

I was on the fence for a little bit because I have a couple of credits established in my maiden name, but I've decided that I want to take his last name and continue using my maiden name on deal memos haha.

I'm going to have to get used to people spelling and pronouncing my new last name wrong though

I won't be taking his name. If we wanted kids then I would have, just to make things simpler.

I'll take my FH's name. I'm not attached to my maiden name.

Yes, i'll be taking my FH's name.
