How many of you are taking your husband's name? Anyone keeping your own last name?
I've
been debating back and forth almost every day on what I want to do.
Thankfully we still haven't received our marriage certificate yet so I
don't feel the pressure yet.

Ditto! That being said, there's no rush even when you do get your marriage license. You can do whatever you want and I think it would be better to be certain it's what you want either way before acting on it. Don't pressure yourself.
I dropped my maiden name and took my husband's last name. For work stuff right now I'm abbreviating so people know who I am. haha It's still so strange to call myself by my new name and be a Mrs.
This.
This is me 100%
This is what I'll be doing.
Megan, I thought you were keeping your name for your research/job things you have published. Am I thinking of someone else or did you change your mind?
Don't mind me, just being nosy.
Feel free to answer or ignore me.
Nope, not me. I'm not too concerned with it since it will all be listed on my CV. That's really the only ties I have to my maiden name and I want to change it. My maiden name is WAY too common so changing it would actually be a smarter move for me.
this is exactly what I did too
June 2012 Bride!
I'm changing mine!
I'm moving my maiden name to my middle name and dropping my current middle (even though I'll miss it!)
I've just spent the last bit changing my name and email address on most of my online accounts (all that I could think of). I'm hoping to go by SSA on Monday since we got our marriage license in the mail! I can't wait for it to be official!!
