What To Expect After Changing Your Name For Marriage

Some judgment from female friends
Some of your more militant feminist friends may judge you for taking your partner’s last name. They can see the tradition as misogynistic, sexist, and even damaging to feminist progress. Just be ready for this. You can change the subject. They’ll let it go eventually. For me, changing my last name is about creating a family unit. Having the same last name as my partner really makes me feel that we are family. And I like his last name. It’s quite beautiful, actually.
