Nne, iji ya �. My mum's relatives still call by her maiden name

ElsonMorali:
Why would a lady want to keep her father's name after marrying?

Doesn't she love the husband enough to want to share his family name with him?

Where is the unity in the family when the husband and the kids bear a different surname than the woman of the house?

I'm not sure I'll want that for my family. If you don't love me enough to take on my name then move along. There are probably others who would love to.

yea

that's your choice and you are entitled to it

Those who want to keep their maiden name after marriage should br left to do so too

And for men like me who don't mind, we should also be left to our preference

“Under the marriage Act, there is no requirement for maiden name and there is also no law which permits the children to use their mother’s maiden name,” he said.

The most important section.

If that is not the case

then the law is ambiguous

There after Esau look for blessing but was deny of it.what ever she become something is her father name that will be had

How many famous women do you know there husband, women show off when their husband make it, but men are hardly known when their wife make it.

hartson:
so tell us what happened that made you think otherwise

Not interested in sharing it. Apologies.

ImaIma1:


That's why I don't buy this feminism thing especially as it seems to have to do with turning against men and making it seem like there is a competition between the two sexes.

Adopting husband's surname should not be a debate issue sincerely. Why am I holding on to my father's name? When it's not even my own name

Thank you jare. You are right.

Are they arguing according to the law or according to their culture and religious belief?. The law is not emotional and sensitive . All is see is a bunch of lawyers making statements influenced by their personal beliefs.
