Smith College boasts the Helen Hills Hills Chapel (oft called the Helen Hills Hills Chapel Chapel), so named because a nice young lady named Helen Hills got married to her first cousin, whose last name was also Hills.
Which, I guess using the same name twice shows that she also kept her own name, and people wouldn't be able to assume that she was using his name rather than her own. But -- Hills Hills! yeesh.
I got married before I had much of a professional history, to a man whose name is at the top of the alphabet, five letters, spelled phonetically. Changing was pretty much a no-brainer. :)
Oh. My. God. Now it's to much for us to go. I swear I almost hope I have a wreck just to show them.
Daisy, are they truly that indecisive, or just idiotic?
Never underestimate the blinding power of stupidity.

Timelies all!
I changed my name when I got married. Felt like the right thing for me. I still sign for packages at work with my maiden name, since the credit card I use for work purchases is still under that name.
If you can sew...
I always hated my last name. Loved my dad dearly, just really hated his name which was hard to spell and harsh sounding (Schram--does anyone want that name ON PURPOSE?). I took my ex's name and chose my mother's maiden name as a middle when I got married and kept it because it was euphonious. I decided to change my last name to Jason's because I like it and it felt weird to have my ex-husband's name still hanging around. I still haven't changed it officially, so I am in name limbo right now. None of my name choices have been political--thay have all been based on how the sound of the names made me feel.
