A fascinating post -- I always love tracing changes in culture and language over time, and from place to place. I kept my name, when I married, in large part because I was already 40 and I had too much life behind my birth name to want to give it up, but I think the important thing is that women have aCate Simonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05807472913817420259noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8927727476793944291.post-24114985523716173832019-09-14T17:11:18.249-05:002019-09-14T17:11:18.249-05:00This comment has been removed by the author.Cate Simonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05807472913817420259noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8927727476793944291.post-70873954459371939052019-09-04T12:36:53.099-05:002019-09-04T12:36:53.099-05:00Thanks, Elizabeth.

I think being Scottish helped me to keep my own name. The women in my own family used their married name, but were careful to make sure we all knew their real name too. I simply followed their lead.C.A.Asbreyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12342631407475364397noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8927727476793944291.post-2398420607993635102019-09-04T12:35:34.628-05:002019-09-04T12:35:34.628-05:00This comment has been removed by the author.C.A.Asbreyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12342631407475364397noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8927727476793944291.post-37198993643345357452019-09-04T12:12:45.285-05:002019-09-04T12:12:45.285-05:00What an interesting and informative post, C.A.

It makes perfect sense to keep one name associated with a career built before marriage and also to keep one's private life private. This particularly benefits writers and singers.Elizabeth Clementshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16553904624219542353noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8927727476793944291.post-9306944002176243092019-09-04T10:18:08.850-05:002019-09-04T10:18:08.850-05:00Thank you, Sarah.

I used to work with a Marion Smellie. I also once stopped a car as a police officer. The driver's name was Ruby Nipps!

All those documents to attend to like the name on the social security card and work name. Ugh! <br />I guess it's a romantic Sarah J.
