When I get married, I won't be changing my name, so professionally I'll be Ms Munchkin03, still.
As for children, I hate hearing "Miss FirstName." Bah! It sounds straight out of the plantation (and I'm NOT with that one!). Either Ms. LastName, or a term of endearment, such as "Aunt FirstName."

Do you mean a child addressing a grown woman as Miss FirstName? Or the child being adddressed as Miss FirstName?
The doormen call the girls (under 18) in the building Miss Jennifer (or whatever the first name is) which I think sounds nice.
