Example, Mr. and Mrs. John Smith
I hate this for the obvious reasons but it’s especially annoying to me because my wife didn’t take my surname!

Name changing upon getting married was made illegal in 1981 around here, my girlfriend gets pissed when people make the mistake and use my family name to refer to her!
Illegal, or do you just have to go through the same process as any other name change?
Personally I ditched my problematic last name gladly, but my MIL kept hers
Illegal to do as part of the wedding process but if you want to do it just like anyone else can then no problem
What a weird way to take away people’s freedoms.
I didn’t even really want my wife to take my last name, but she insisted because she’s estranged from her parents.
I can’t imagine a bureaucrat telling her she can’t change her name because they know better than she does.
Yeah I don’t think women see it as a freedom issue as much as feeling obligated to change their name does.
I told her I didn’t think she should change her name. She told me she really wanted to.
You should have the right to tell her no?
Where is that?
Quebec, makes things much simpler from a record keeping perspective
Until you have kids, of course, when the parents must decide which name/combination of their names to give the child, and that combination is limited to only one hyphenation by law.
At least the mother can give her name
quebec?
