Would your fiancé not taking your last name be a deal breaker?

52Let’s say she tells you a couple days before the wedding she wants to keep her own last name? Would you still marry her? And no, this isn’t a personal story…

Waiting only a couple days before to tell you seems suspicious.
I am older than most newlyweds and my current girl is a doctor, can’t blame her for not changing her name.

on 11/25/22 at 2:46 am to ArmyHogsYes, bad leading indicator. She'll wind up being an enormous pain in the ass, even more than most.
Expect the 20somethings in here to say otherwise, they have no fricking idea what they're talking about.

My brother and sister in law have different last names. It’s been an awkward discussion point many times with their kids. The natural assumption is that his wife, the kids mother, is the step parent

on 11/25/22 at 4:16 am to ArmyHogsWasn’t a deal breaker for me.
My wife kept her last name professionally but has my last name for everything else. It wouldn’t bother me if she didn’t take it at all other than it would be a PITA when dealing with day to day stuff.

on 11/25/22 at 4:25 am to ArmyHogsYep. First sign of many problems to come. This belongs in that slippery slope thread.
I wasn't going to change mine, initially, just because it's a huge PITA, but then I realized that not changing it seemed very disrespectful to mfiwd. So, I got the SS card and license changed. Will eventually get the bank info updated, along with the passport. I updated my signature at work, but told IT, under no circumstances, change my work email (which includes my maiden name). Other women, who had their email addresses changed, said it was a nightmare.
TLDR - Yes, a woman should take her husband's last name.

If a woman wouldn't take my last name I would not marry her. She wants to be her own woman, she doesn't need my help.

Yes, that’s a deal breaker.
I get that kids these days do things differently, which in this case doesn’t mean better.
The hyphenated last names are the worst. Just go ahead and plan the divorce along with the wedding.

Yeah it would be a dealbreaker for me but I could understand it if people 40+ getting married not doing so. Or any marriage that doesn’t plan to have kids, although I don’t know why the frick anyone would do that.
There is only a few reasons why she shouldn’t take your last name
1. She is known by her last name in her profession (Doctor, published author, etc)
2. She’s famous
3. Her family has a business or something they built on the family name
Otherwise it’s suspect

I suppose if you're an insecure little man it is a deal breaker.

Don't be talking about kids. You'll get your buddy Cuyler excited.
Not everyone bases their marriage on antiquated customs. The days of an easy name change are over. The red tape and hoops you have to jump through at government agencies to change a name is unbelievable.

She can always change her name back if she divorces her husband so I don’t understand the big deal.
