Is your surname originally your mum's,dad's or your partner's?

[Spinneret]

My dads

 

[Meriweather]

husband's

 

[BroadwayHermione5]

Dads and I don’t intend on changing it if I get married (my initials are a nickname of mine-too much identity tied in)

 

[tvguy]

Dad's.

 

[Wendy31]

Before I got married, my dad’s.

After I got married, my surname became my legal middle name (I kinda dropped my actual middle name), & now my surname is my husband’s surname - which was his dad’s surname.

 

[MamaMermaid]

It was my dad's and now is my husband's.

 

[tzolkin]

My spouse’s.

Before I got married, my dad’s.

After I got married, my surname became my legal middle name (I kinda dropped my actual middle name), & now my surname is my husband’s surname - which was his dad’s surname.

My mom did this too.

 

[E&Cmom]

My spouse’s. Before marriage, it was my Dad’s.

 

[BlueStarryHat]

My Dad. I never married, but if I had I would have changed it.

 

[ronandannette]

My current husband's. For a while I continued to go by a former surname professionally, but when I changed jobs a few years after we married, I made the change entirely.

 

[tinkerbellandpeterpan]

When I got married, I dropped my middle name, made my maiden name my middle name and took my husband's last name.

 

[leebee]

My dad's- I kept my name when I got married (and so did both of my sisters).

 

[ncc1701]

When I got married, I dropped my middle name, made my maiden name my middle name and took my husband's last name.

Same here. My Sister did the same as did several friends. My Mom said if it was a "thing" when she married , she would have done the same thing.
