I didn’t even really want my wife to take my last name, but she insisted because she’s estranged from her parents.
I can’t imagine a bureaucrat telling her she can’t change her name because they know better than she does.

Yeah I don’t think women see it as a freedom issue as much as feeling obligated to change their name does.

I told her I didn’t think she should change her name. She told me she really wanted to.
You should have the right to tell her no?

She could have done it through the regular name changing process long anyone else (which involves fees and a lot of paperwork to make sure all records are updated everywhere).

Oh, so it’s one of those cases of the Quebecois trying to make life shitty for Anglophone culture.
