Name change after marriage

Re: Name change after marriage

I have NEVER heard of in-laws changing first name. That is just bizzare!

okay I understand last name change but first is like - how can I say this - it's like taking YOUR IDENTITY AWAY COMPLETELY.

If your friend is happy and does not mind, then good for her. Do not interfere.

However, personally, I would not be able to let someone do that to me. That's too much control over you. I would actually IGNORE whoever calls me by any other name.
