Do you keep anything in your maiden name?

DH had a hissy fit because I ordered new checks and they have my maiden name on them.
Yes, it is my personal cjaecking account and I never changed the name on it. Nor for my credit card!

I don't see the big deal but DH thinks it's because I am not crazy about my married name. Chat Icon

Only one thing and that's because it was done before we got married and we can't change it.

I still have my student loans in my maiden name. I've just been too lazy to change it. Chat Icon

Re: Do you keep anything in your maiden name?

My DH made me change EVERYTHING.

The only thing I did do was put my maiden name and married name on my MBA diploma. He got upset about this, but I told him that my undergrad diploma only had my maiden name on it, and I wanted some consistency there. He just had to deal with it Chat Icon

Re: Do you keep anything in your maiden name?

Everything is in my maiden name. I didn't change my name. When more men start changing their "maiden" names then I might think about changing my name, but until then- nope.

Re: Do you keep anything in your maiden name?

Most things are

The only things that aren't are some stocks that I have out there.
And that is because I haven't gotten around to sending my marriage certificate to anyone.

The deed to my house has my maiden name because we bought it before we were married.

Re: Do you keep anything in your maiden name?

My degrees and certifications are in my maiden name. I will leave them that way.

My car loan and insurance are still in my maiden name, as well as my debit card and one credit card. Only reason why is because I am too lazy to fax over my marriage license to prove that my name changed! Chat Icon

Re: Do you keep anything in your maiden name?

My degrees, everything at work (email, health insurance), credit cards, and my bank accounts are hyphenated so I can deposit checks made out to either name. Chat Icon It might be easier to ask what I DID change my name on--my license, car registration, SS card, and passport.

I've been married almost 3 years.

Re: Do you keep anything in your maiden name?

My degrees and our timeshare have my maiden name. I have my maiden name on my debit card also, but officially the account has my married name. I have both my maiden and married name on my drivers license.

I really didn't make the change until a month before our 1st son was born. I wanted to make sure that my married name was on his birth certificate.

Re: Do you keep anything in your maiden name?

I kept my maiden name on my degrees. Since my parents paid for it, I thought it would be nice to keep it in the family name.

My credit cards are in my maiden name and my student loans. There are a few that I will change but the rest will stay in my maiden name since Im planning on tossing them once I pay them off.

I changed everything. Even my PE license. I actually kept my maiden name as my middle name and show it all on my license because then its easier to back track to my degrees in my maiden name.

ETA: I didn't even know it was possoble to change your degrees to your married name Chat Icon Mine are in my maiden name.

Some older things are hyphenated ... some are just in married name.

DMV told me I would have to go to court to make my maiden name my middle name. Chat Icon SS let me do it no problem.

Re: Do you keep anything in your maiden name?

No. I still have some military records in my maiden name, but that's only because the process is slow and changing every record is a real pain. Eventually hopefully everything will be in my married name.
