Using the husband's surname, will you or will you not?

[milkchocolate]

im almost 2 years married and yung ibang docs ko maiden name ko pa like passport, tin, sss and bank accounts. pero inuunti unti ko na pag paprocess para mapalitan na. since i still dont have any valid id that carries my husband's surname, maiden name ko pa din gamit ko.
nakakalito din minsan. pag magfi-fill up ako ng forms, di ko alam kung maiden or married name na nasulat ko. pati pirma ko tuloy dalawa na din.

[mooncake and leaves]

i think i'd like to take my future husband's name pa din. mas masarap pakinggan. hindi naman kabawasan yun sa tingin ko, sa aking pagkababae. masarap sumurrender. isa pa, mas madaling isulat sa tax forms. can you imagine? konti lang ang boxes na allowed sa mga forms at iba pang chuva ha.

^ LOL! very funny sis... pero totoo naman na hassle din talaga minsan ang pagpapalit ng surname. but i would still use my future husband's last name. pati pirma ko, papalitan ko na din. hehe...

siguro kung may title ako, like if im a lawyer, doctor, nurse, engr... hyphenated na lang.

[mukhamo]

i did. yoko kasi ng surname ko eh hehe:) but unfortunately di ko pa napapalitan id's ko

[AngelphazE]

I'm planning to keep my surname and also use my to-be-husbands surname..parang
If Angelphaze is my name, and my surname is Broken, tapos ang surname ng hubby ko ay Hearted...ganito siya

Angelphaze Broken-Hearted.


Mas cool kasing tignan.

i did use my hubby's surname

[gwacie]

I would use his surname if we got married. Actually, everytime I meet a guy with "potential", I check out his last name if it sounds ok with my first name, and so far, so good. Still if it's something like "Patay" or "Bayot" I think I would prefer to stick to my maiden name. (no offense meant to any GTalkers with those surnames).

[ellheym]

i'm using my husband surname. nasanay na rin ako.

[honey_iya]

kala ko din basta kinasal na eh kelangan husband's surname na gamitin pero i doubt it kung papayag din si hubby na hindi ko gamitin surname niya

[iyaika]

Kung ang tanong na ito ay ngayon, I definitely will. Haha. Naalala ko nung teener pa ako e ina-affix ko ang surnames ng crushes ko sa aking pangalan.

Pero in the coming years I don't know if that will change pa.

When I was in college, me and my classmates didn't know that my former professor was married na pala kasi she didn't change her surname. Her reason? She doesn't think it's necessary naman daw to change her surname. hehe.

[shrinkingviolet]

Talaga? Bakit naman? Pwede ba yung ganun?

[sofibanofi]

 i did! kasi mas ok than my maiden surname  
saka syempre naman i want my husband to feel na proud ako to carry his name although pano na nga kung di kanais-nais ang tunog nya? whew, buti na lang..  
 super hirap nga lang dahil dami dapat ipa-update at ipabago.. i share the confusion thing coz some of my id's nung dalaga pa ko and some were updated na. i have to look at it again at baka mali mapirma ko. yung atm ko na updated, ang pirma sa likod eh nung dalaga pa ko. haay.. buti hindi ko nagawa sa credit card!  

[gnela_21]

^ In a few months time, I'll need to make this decision. Gusto ko sana i-hyphenated na lang, kaso masyadong mahaba na ata pangalan ko dun. Oh well. Isipin ko na lang ulet.

[jhnnse]

why not? esp if it sounds foreign [american/british]
but if his last name is as stinky that you can almost
smell it, sorry na lang sya but i have to stick to mine

[chinita_charm]

hypenated ang gamit ko. madalas nagagalit si hubby pag ganun gusto nya surname nya lang ggamitin ko

[euriel]

i'm into hypenated too. its for my father, sayang naman surname namin kasi 3 girls kami, wala na nag carry ng last name ng tatay ko, kaya i told my husband, i'll use my maiden name-married name sa ayaw nya at gusto..

i decided on this nung kinuha akong guest speaker sa elem school ko, ang ilalagay sa invites at streamer e married name lang, ayoko noh! tatay ko pa gumawa nung speech ko, tas walang trace ng name nya...to honor my father na rin...

[hapi_prego]

im an old child ang my father is the only boy. imagine that sakin talaga natapos ang lahi namin hehe

im using my married name, ayaw pumayag ng hubby ko, okay lang naman sa papa ko, pero paga nag-eemail ako sa kanya, gamit ko yung e-add ko na maiden name ko, parang nahihiya din kasi ako.

[tisay]

ako din hypenated kase mas kilala ang surname namin kesa sa asawa ko... hehe
[textspeak!] iba nga jan hindi naman asawa eh apelyido na ng bf ang gamit nila... mga feeling! tee hee! 

[jengwa]

i would love to retain my surname if ever i get married. kagaya ng iba dito, wala ng magtutuloy ng surname ng papa ko coz 2 girls lang kami in the family. but i know that would create confusion and baka forever akong mag-explain kung bakit hindi ko ginagamit ang surname ng would-be husband ko.

e kung magpabuntis kaya ako at kung lalake ang anak ko, he gets to use my dad's surname? haha

[pat3sha]

I know super laking issue sa lalaki pag ayaw kunin nang babae yung surname nila pero kung super baho at pangit naman yung surname sana maintindihan nila. Sorry kung may tamaan, may kilala ako na ang surname e "katakutan, dichupa at magubat" at lahat sila hind nakaligtas na panunukso.
