Okay so Shakespeare quote aside, I get married in 11 weeks and still cannot decide what to do about my name - I am torn between taking h2b surname and double barreling maiden name and new surname. H2b is supportive either way and has even said he will take the double barrelled name also if that is what I want. However I think that if I do double barrel, I am happy for just me to have this surname and for our h2b and future children to have his surname - I do not mind so much about passing my surname on, it is more just of sentimental value for me.
Some days I am all set for just taking h2b's surname and embracing that as it is a nice name and other days I switch to wanting to double barrel to keep my name but also knowing that aside from legal documentation, in ever day life I can just choose to be Mrs H2bname if I wish always - so maybe best of both worlds?
Anyway..I feel I know all my options, new name, doubele barrel name, hyphen, no hyphen, maiden name as middle name, keeping maiden name, combinaton of both our surnames etc..
What I would like to hear is what option you have all gone for but more importantly, your reasons behind this choice to see if I can gain any clarity on my own thoughts xx
