Plus, you know, you'll get to avoid what I hear is a huge paperwork hassle in getting the name changed. :)Carolynnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16293659299866842077noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2884676568221062098.post-8205306542361010982010-11-23T10:41:37.142-08:002010-11-23T10:41:37.142-08:00Plus, Hart-Walker just sounds like a Care Bare.Plus, Hart-Walker just sounds like a Care Bare.Laura Harthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12055872368484244621noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2884676568221062098.post-86086276362440256462010-11-23T10:40:42.074-08:002010-11-23T10:40:42.074-08:00I'm in the opposite boat as far as my personal...I'm in the opposite boat as far as my personal decision. I don't plan to legally change my name. Why? Well, much like #6, I think Laura Hart is a better name that Laura Walker. Laura Walker is a good name too, don't get me wrong, but I just feel apprehensive and just generally not excited to go by it officially. I may introduce myself as Mrs. Walker once kids get involved, but I should think legally it will always be Hart.Laura Harthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12055872368484244621noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2884676568221062098.post-44691620675021644762010-11-07T19:05:56.751-08:002010-11-07T19:05:56.751-08:00Thanks, Nicole. :)

I absolutely appreciate all of these reasons and love that you have thought about it so critically, but I think the most compelling reason for you to change your name is that you want to. You are entering into a covenant with each other and I think that adopting his name is a beautiful display of that commitmentNicole Howellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03251985291742037267noreply@blogger.com
