Change Of Name: What Do I Do? by daylay7(m): 10:03am On Aug 06, 2021 |
I have been married for few months now and I am having this talks with my husband on which name he would want me to change to since he said he doesn't want his children to bear his family name but rather his name. He said, our future children will bear his name while I bear his family name and I told him it sounds awkward. I would prefer to bear the same surname along with the children. What do I do? |

What to do? So far it doesn't remove your wife status, if you reason with him and he disagrees, bear the family name. 1 Like 1 Share |

ImaIma1: How do you mean? |

daylay7: I used to see these issues in the bank. A woman is opening accounts for her children as the parent, and she has a different surname with her children and it raises issues. Men always coming to change name from family name to father's name as surname. Then the children will bear his own name as his surname. So he bears a different name from his children. They just complicate matters. 3 Likes 1 Share |

ImaIma1: So, how do u suggest this issue can be resolved. Should she bear the husband's name with the children or the husband's surname while the children bears the husband's first name. |

Pre NYSC certs: papas name NYSC and work:Father in laws name Kids papers: Husband s name Keep using your old name until he makes up his mind and you and your kids must bear the same surname or make his middle name and family name the last .Eg Daylay7 Tunde(husband) femi(family name. 2 Likes 1 Share |

Ulunne777: I will go with this. He should sort himself out. |
Re: Change Of Name: What Do I Do? by ImaIma1(f): 12:04am On Aug 07, 2021 |
Ulunne777: She should let her husband understand that she doesn't want difference in names to cause problems for her especially when it comes to documentation. So that he can see reason and know how his decision will affect her and the children. With that, they can pick something that works 1 Like 1 Share |

You and your kids should bear your husband's name. Only your husband should bear his family name because, your 'Husband's Name' is now your own new family name that should be promoted. daylay7: 1 Like 1 Share |
