Bride and groom with same name issue

[BlkMane]

Question: If your last name is "Browne" and your future husband's last name is "Brown" what would you do after marriage?

"Browne" doesn't make sense changing it.

I know a couple like this. Her last name is Ford, his is Forde. She now goes by Ford-Forde.

If it were me, I wouldn't change my name. I'm already on the fence about changing it anyway.

Drop the 'e' and call it a day.

I won't be changing my last name anyway, different spelling or not.

Quite redundant. (Ford-Forde)

It's funny how one little letter can mean so much to some people. And to OFFICIALLY drop the "e" would mean the bride would have to change all her legal documents (passport, license, etc.) just for ONE LETTER.

Drop the "e".

If I were in this situation, I would change my name to whatever FH's name is.

The above did sound silly. However, I think not changing it once they're married could cause problems too on legal documents. Stupid, I know.

After 18 years, I had to add a hyphen between my last names cause my health insurance company was tripping over it. For some reason, they wanted to make one name = middle name and only use the other as my last. Confusing.
