What To Expect After Changing Your Name For Marriage
Expect some backlash from family
There can be some hurt feelings in your family. I know my family isn’t wild about my changing my last name. They are traditional, so I was surprised there was any pushback, but I think it could be because there was divorce and turmoil in my family. They may not like feeling that, in one more way, the family is broken up – like by me splitting off into a new last name.
