re: Wife using maiden name as middle name

I’ve never heard of this happening before, and don’t know a single person that’s done this. Every married woman I know has just changed their last name. Is this just some random coonass thing?

Someone who doesn't know the rules of society.

It was a social thing that you kept your maiden name. I did not because mine was hella long and hard for anyone else to spell.

You were also properly addressed on social mail as Mrs. David Smith rather than Mrs. Susie Smith. Mrs. Susie Smith was either divorced or had a husband who was deceased.
