Why girls change their middle & last name after marriage?

[Anonymous]

I don't understand this... and I don't support this nonsense...
It's like someone bought property n owner change so middle & last name change...

To me, holding onto your maiden name is like holding onto your singleness. It’s impossible. You’re either single or married. You can’t be both. But hey, I’m old fashioned so I have no problem giving up my maiden name. When I get married, my maiden name will go bye bye right along with me singleness. Of course, I’ll still be me, but I want to be a united front with my husband. 😊

I doubt many women care what you think about it. Its the forming of a new family and signifying the new relationship. My wife will take my last name.

Tradition, although a lot of women choose to keep their names after marriage these days.
