Ladies Who Hold On To Their Father's Surname In Marriage

Some ladies choose to keep their father's surname and bare it together with their husband's surname in marriage.
What are the reasons??? I WONDER 

LADIES: will you keep to your father's name in marriage?
MEN: what will be your reaction if your wife to be wish to hold on to her father's name ?

I would not have a problem with it. My mom retained her maiden name along with my dad's last name and pops was ok with it.
As a matter of fact, I always thought it weird that a woman would bear her husband's first and last name, kind of reducing her status to that of the children in the household. You know how kids bear their papa's first and last name. Always thought the wife's one would be different.

I believe it has to do with these rich men daughters;they love to show themselves apart from joke silver

 

What is wrong in trying to keep your father's name. It could be good for recognition especially in the work place or if you're known by that name in business, why would you want to build a reputation when you can leverage on the one you already have?

Plus, it doesn't take anything away from the guy, does it?

I won't have a problem with it either.  When you are in the eyes of the public, you can't just change your name.

i won't want to keep ma last name? 4 what reason?lol, am still going to be who I am that is ma lastname remains as per NEE wuteva but only ma hubby's name, come 2 think of it, it would sound so hilarious if i combine both, sum people's own sound so good

I wouldn't mind keeping my last name. Or joining it with my husband. I know a friend who only had sisters and no brothers and they all decided to keep their name since they didn't want to get rid of it when they all got married.

Oh my God! This is unbelievable! Why should a woman take her husband's name? I don't even get it! I have my own surname and it's not like I'm property that is transferred from my father's ownership to my husband's. I'm a human with my own lineage, with my own parents and grandparents. I'm not going to take on someone else's name just because I marry him. My name shall stay the same from birth till death. I won't even combine my name with his. I have a surname and he has his own. If I have daughters, they must maintain their father's name too.

Its pure and utter nonsense to make such a big deal about a name. A woman's name has no impact on her readiness for marriage. My father fed me, took care of me, paid my fees and everything so should I renounce him for a man that wants me only because of all the work this father of mine has done for me? If the man had met me in rags, uneducated, uncouth and unmannerly, would he have felt the same attraction to me? Excuse me, o, for being grateful to my dad for all he has done. If a guy isn't happy with that, he can get lost. Only a petty person would be hung up on such a trivial issue; in fact, that alone would tell me a lot about his character.

Spoken like a true son of the soil!

nuthin wrong with that.

I would love to do that cause i like the double barrel surnames - thats if ma man is cool with it.
