It's traditional for a woman to change her family name to her husbands when she marries. Why shouldn't she keep her name. Is this a hold over of religion to subjugate woman? Women, if you were married did you change your name?

Feel free to reply to any comment by clicking the "Reply" button.I was married once but didn't change my name. I like my maiden name and wanted to keep it. Besides, changing my name just seemed like a silly thing. I guess I'm not very traditional.

I agree. I think it beckoned to the time women were a husbands property.
My ex had a cool last name. She kept it. The kids got my last name as a second middle name. No hyphen.
