As couples prepare to get married there are many questions about what the wedding will be like; music, dress code, food, seating and 101 other things which need to be organized. However, in the lead up to their married life together one of the big questions, with long term implications, is what they will do about their names. A generation or two ago this was not really a question; wives would be the ones to change their name, invariably taking their husband's family name. Today it is not so simple, some change, some don't, some hyphenate, and others choose completely new names. There are lots of choices out there, and it is hard to claim that there is really one preferred option today.


  


 
Sincerely,
