Ahoy!
I'm new to posting on Mumsnet although have been reading the forums on here for a good few months! I'm getting married next week (a not so secret elopement) and am currently agonising over whether or not to change my surname. I have a bunch of documents/ work history in my name and we have a daughter who was registered with my surname. Instinct tells me to keep it but I'm worried I'm setting us up for some sort of difficulty in the future if my husband has a different surname to us. I briefly mooted him changing his surname to match us and while he is very supportive and liberal, this idea was quickly shot down.
Does anyone have any experience of having the same surname as their kids but a different one to their husband??
Thanks all and please let me know if I've posted this in the wrong place! Still finding my way around!
