My boyfriend's father announced at dinner a while back that a marriage will never succeed if the woman does not change her name. My parents have different last names, and I have my dad's last name, so I just giggled a little.

My questions is: is it acceptable to keep your own name (no legal change) but use his name socially (as in Mr. and Mrs. Such-and-such)?

I'm REALLY not looking forward to hearing it mispronounced constantly by 7th graders when I start teaching, so I might make the switch if and when I get married...
