I didn't change my name when I got married-I told hubby we could hyphenate or he could take mine (personally I think mine sounds better with his name anyway). He actually debated hyphenating but was worried his family wouldn't understand. So we stuck with the names we were born with. Surprisingly my family were rather jerks about it-my mom said I was being a bitch and disrespectful and my dad just shook his head sadly (which I swear is worse than being called names or being beaten to a pulp, ugh!!). Anyhow, almost 3 years later and everyone calls me Mrs. Hubby's Name. Annoys me but the bank will cash checks made out that way so I don't stress too much. Its almost like a little secret-ha ha you called me Mrs. Hubby's Name but my REAL name is blahblah!!! HA HA on you!!!
We had agreed when we had kids they'd have his name. It didn't bother me too much till I saw the birth certificate and then I felt...I dunno...left out? Like she wasn't MINE cause she didn't have my name?
This June will be 3 years and I've been seriously thinking of changing my name to add his so my name would be given-middle-maiden-his. I have no idea what all goes into name changes though, who I'd have to contact or what I'd even have to do. I wouldn't even use his (like for signatures or anything) except when I'd be required to give my full legal name so it might just be a waste of time. I just want my kids and I to match...is that messed up???
See what I'm up to:
