Mrs. LYS-Right...
After reading The Name Change Dilemma, an article that discussed how more women are choosing to adopt their husbands’ names after marriage instead of keeping with the 90’s trend of keeping their maiden names. I guess the 90’s women mentality has left. I couldn’t help but wonder what I’d do when that time came.
I’ve been LYS for 20 something years, it’s all I know and I love being LYS. I’ve been that person my entire life, now I meet this wonderful man and magically become someone else. Hmm...I don’t think so. I know that couldn’t just drop MY name and add Mr. Right AND his last name. I’m not even close to getting married right now, but women all over the world and I since childhood have thought about more times than we can count. I have come to the conclusion that when the time comes, I would legally hyphenate my name and keep all 3 zillion letters. Professionally I will remain LYS. As a wife and a mother, (*o*) I’d use my newly acquired last name.
Ladies and fellas, after reading this what do you think? Guys, do you want your wife to change her name to your name completely? Why or why not? Ladies, what do you intend to do upon marrying your soul mate? Why or why not?
