Hot tip, change HIS last name prior to the wedding and she gets the name change free.
I know a couple that waited until after the wedding to do that and the husband changed his name, then the wife was given the option of keeping her old name, or switch to his old name.
She ended up having to go through the entire name change process without the benefit of the auto-name flip from the marriage.

My fiance and I are considering creating a brand new last name that we both take.

I wonder if there’s an opening there to claim discrimination on the basis of sex.
I got the biggest hassle from Delta Airlines on my stupid Skymiles account.
