Is it weird for a woman to keep her last name after she's married?

No, whatever feels comfortable.

I changed mine, I’m divorced and still using the same name, I can’t be bothered with the whole name change thing.

Cheesy line but it worked!

P.s. I probably would have said the same thing.

It is weird that women were supposed to take their husband's name.

What century did you live in? :)
There hasn't been anything weird about it at least since I got married and my wife kept her last name, which was over 30 years ago.

@ServantOfTheGoddess A century that still thinks it's weird, apparently.

no though like I've no last name
Nothing is weird
It's good to take husband's last name but sometimes it's not possible due to other issues
Here It's difficult

Nah. I'm going to hyphenate mine and his together. I love my family and I don't want to let go of the name. I want to be associated with my surname for the rest of my life.

No not at all.
There are many regions in the world
Such as the Middle East
Where keeping your name after marriage as a woman is the norm.
Not in my book. When I married my late husband, I did not change my name. My husband did not mind, but my mother did!

I dont think so. But i would change mine to his.

@SW-User My girl says she doesn't wanna part with her last name when she gets married, she likes it too much.
SW-User
@JimFarris16 maybe she could keep hers and add a hyphen and yours

Depends on the culture.
