Example, Mr. and Mrs. John Smith

I hate this for the obvious reasons but it’s especially annoying to me because my wife didn’t take my surname!

    Does the court order only need to be aquired if a man wants to take his wife’s surname? What if a man just decides to change his surname to something else? What if that just so happens to be his wife’s surname?

      That depends on the state but at least in my state it requires a court order for both situations.

        Damn that is silly. Where I live you just go to the local municipality or similar and request it done.
