She’s Best
The debate over whether women should adopt their husband’s surname after marriage is not the primary concern here. Although it is still prevalent, we believe that each woman should make her own decision on the matter. The original poster was genuinely curious to hear from women who had opted not to take their spouse’s name and wished to understand their reasoning.
One commenter offered a hilarious response, stating that her last name was already the best. It was not an attempt to be rude, as her name was genuinely Emily Best. It’s unlikely that anyone would want to change their last name if it was already “Best.” In fact, we can imagine that her husband would be thrilled to take on her surname. Ultimately, the decision to change one’s name is a personal one, and individuals should do what feels right for them.
