Keeping Last Name - Still a Mrs?

I think you'd just be a Ms. in that situation!

i googled and came up with this

Technically I think you are still a Ms. I believe "Mrs" means "wife of," so it makes sense to say "Mrs. Husband's last name" but doesn't really work to say "Mrs. Maiden Name."

That being said, technicalities aside, you really can call yourself whatever you want

Ahh I was never sure when Ms. came in! Thank you!

Personally - No I won’t be, especially as Mrs My Surname is my grandmother and will refuse to be called it. I am Ms Surname, end of.

I have had had one person ask if I will be Mrs but generally everyone has assumed I’ll still be Ms (or Miss, if they don’t know I prefer Ms)

i know many many women who kept their names (from 70 to 26) and not a single one uses Mrs Original Surname.

True historic etiquette states that Mrs should never follow a woman’s surname so by extending that logic Mrs Maiden Name is a no no

But ultimately choose to use whatever title you want to

View Quoted Comment Ms is just trying to create a female Mr. A title that doesn’t designate marriage status.
I know women who are married, change their name and still is Ms because they wanted a title which didn’t declare their relationship status. Not common but does happen. Equally plenty of married, single, realationshipped women use Ms.

I plan to leave mine as “Ms.” no marital status needed.

View Quoted Comment This is a cool article! I never knew that Ms. could be used for married women. Thanks for the link!

I think I would stick with Ms. if it were me. But honestly, I think if you prefer one or the other than do it!

You would be Mrs.
Formally addressed it is Mrs. Jane Doe and Mr. John Smith. Woman goes first in that case

Interesting topic! Im not changing my last name either. I’m glad I don’t need to choose though because mine will be Dr. I didn’t earn my degree for nothing lol

FH is taking my last name so I won’t be changing mine. I am planning to go by Ms as Mrs just doesn’t sound right to me but FH wants me to be Mrs.

Personally I’d go with whatever you prefer. If you want to be Mrs, go for it.

Of course! Your married

I'm no English major but I think otherwise that would just be ridiculous. You are married after all it should be automatic.

Oo I never thought about this! I decided to keep my last name as well
