No experience but that would kinda bother me too. What's her reasoning? Eh I guess it ain't too bad or that big of a deal. I dunno. Good luck with that
Its pretty common for women to use their maiden name in step with her married name and Ive even seen it done where the lady carries her maiden name.
Both of my Xs used their maiden name in some form or fashion. The main reason was for bills and such. With my previous job I didnt want any of the dip shits I was hunting to have an easy time to find out where me and the family laid their head. The second reason (second wife) she had a successful career as a sales person and the new name and an already crowded market place made us decide that it was a good reason for her profession.
Hope this helps. No one ever asked/questioned me, her or the validity of our marriage or some secret motive behind it.
BTW this has nothing to do with the reason I dumped both of those bitches.
Dont let ego get in the way if its a legit reason she has. (facebook is not a valid reason)
Strange I just had a very similiar conversation about 3 days ago. She wants to just keep her maiden name all together. I told her I couldnt care less. A name is a name. Dosnt bother me either way. We both have very "normal" last names too.
Well I guess my reasoning is because of tradition in my family and how I guess I think it's disrespectful that every other woman around is willing to part with their last name but my wife won't. I don't generally think of myself as traditional. More progressive than most but for some reason, to me getting hitched means she takes my last name and keeps her first and middle name. Wish she woulda told me that before hand so it wasn't a shock.
Weird one of my employees just did this. I don't see a problem. The hyphen thing is some bullshit post modern feminist social justice warrior bullshit.
So it'll be like Anewguy Johnson Tyson? Johnson being her maiden name? Don't think it matters bro. New times. Gonna have a women president soon too.. Times change.
My wife wanted to either use her maiden or keep it as middle, I'm old fashioned. Not a misogynistic asshole, just traditional. Her mom even tried to sway me. I wasn't having it. Deal breaker.
My wife brought that up before we got married.....partly becuase she's pro feminism, women's rights etc but I come from a family with traditions (Italian). No go in my book especially if you have kids down the line. That's just me but ultimately that decision is between the 2 of you. If your both comfortable with it then fine. If not gotta talk that one out.
I didn't even read any of the other posts and went right to my own.
I went down this road and it was simple; "You want to keep your maiden name, sure. I'm not taking it from you but then you don't get mine." Old school won out on that one. What the fuuk is next separate bank accounts? So what are the children's name going to be? Bullshit, she's either all in or all out! Just the mention of it would make me go sideways.
