I don't care if a person changes their name or not...

Just don't hyphenate it. I ABSOLUTELY HATE that...
i agree about the hyphen. what are you going to do when your kid who has a hyphenated name meets another kid with a hyphenated name and then wants to get hitched! it's HYPHEN MADNESS is what it is.

Rumor has it the non-masters will be left behind after the move (to do hits on the no-longer-existing www platform). :whistle2:
As far as the increasing PREs are concerned, the current platform already is 'no longer existing'. This morning, the first thing I got after signing on(and before I started the pandas) was the 'maximum requests' notice. At first click--really Amazon..

merge all 4 last names into one super last name!
that's what 2 friends of mine did.
they mashed their last names up and both switched to the new name.

my boss didn't take her husband's last name but when they had a son, they just used her husband's name because they didn't want to hyphen. backstory was she had told him that if she got published before they got married, she wouldn't change her name.

Hyphen Madness :hilarious:
I thought about hyphenating my last name but I don't think I would ever hyphenate my childs last name. I have since come to my senses and I've decided that when the time comes I'm going to take my fiances last name.

and then we got divorced and i really wish my kids had my last name. would make it easier for everything, ugh.

I didn't take my husband's last name, but I gave my son his last name. Definitely regret that now :shifty:

I like that, it'd be neat if that was the norm for everyone

why does she HAVE to take his last name?
i didnt take my ex husbands last name or probably wont take my new husbands name either.

im glad your daughter called it nonsense.
In one of the recent Muppet movies, she was referred to as becoming "mrs the-frog" after a marriage
