I was brought up thinking that when a girl gets married, her maiden name becomes her middle name and then her husband's name is her new one.
Personally, I can't wait to get rid of my last name. It's not bad or anything--just a run-of-the-mill English name--but my mom remarried when I was very young and I've always been the odd one out. Everyone in my family has the same last name except me, and I don't like it. I don't know why I never had it changed...I guess out of respect to my grandparents, but if I get married you're damn right I'll be changing it. My husband, me, and the kids if there are any will all have the same last name, because believe me, it gets *really* old trying to explain exactly why the names are different.
