  • Yes I would take on my husbands last name if I ever get married. I hate mine.
  • I wouldn't care. I don't think I would take her's.
  • Would not bother me a bit, if she wants to take my name thats fine, if not thats also fine, she's her own person. I've actually toyed with the idea of reversing the tradition and taking her name, not sure if I'd actually do it or not unless there was a compelling reason she wanted me to.
  • Wouldn't care if she didn't want to take my name. Would not take hers. I'm also a little pissed that my ex wife is still using my last name.
  • I don't plan on ever getting married. But if I do, I will not take my partner's last name; nor do I expect that they take my last name.
  • If I were ever married again it would be completely up to her if she wanted to take my name or not. Doesn't matter to me either way. I'm not fond of my last name honesly as it is too germanic and harsh. I like my girlfriends last name and if we married I would consider taking her last name seriously. That is not as uncommon as you would think it is these days.
  • With my late husband, I did choose to take his name. He did not tell me how he felt about it until after I made my decision. He didn't want me to feel pressured one way or the other. Many of the women in his family have chosen not to so that would not have been abnormal to him. He was very happy to have me take his name.
  • In Muslims,women don't take their husbands name in front of them as a respect.
  • I'm not married. But I already know that I wouldn't change my last name. My son's last name is the same as mine(not his father's) so unless by some great miracle his father lets me change my son's last name. I will not change mine.
