I told DH when we married that I like my name and I'm used to my name and I'm keeping it, but he could go right ahead and change his if he wished.
We both still have the names we started with.

There is a couple that I occasionally deal with for business.  When they got married, he took her name.  Her family is old money and well known in the social circles, so he took hers instead of her taking his. 


I will change my name when I get married.  That is the true test when meeting guys -- what his last name is and how well it goes with my first name.  Haha.
