Really? And that one form changed her name at every place where a person might need o update their information? She didn't have to notify the post office, the cable company, the electric company, her doctor, her bank, her insurance, the DMV, her HR dept, etc? And none of those places wanted to see her marriage certificate, her new social security card, or both? That one form did it ALL for her?

[(Anonymous)]

The most time consuming thing was social security. Maybe the DMV. Either way, name changing is hardly a traumatic event and that was pre-internet. I think you're overstating the complexity of name changing.

It's not a traumatic event, but it's a royal pain in the ass. Maybe it's gotten to be a bigger pain since your sister did it, I dunno. My comment came from my own experience of changing my name a year and a half ago. My cable company in particular for some fucking reason was one of the places that wanted to see both my SS card and my marriage certificate before they'd update it, and that took forever to do because their brick-and-mortar was only open during my work hours.

I agree. I did not change my name when I married, but the number of places I would have had to go and change it was mind boggling.

Changing my name was a pain in the ass. Not just various financial accounts, credit cards, SS, DL, phones, cellular, DSL, gas&power accounts, etc., but also my living trust and property titles (I own a lot of properties.) Very costly and time-consuming. Lots of visits to various gov't agencies and notaries. It is not a small deal at all for some.

[(Anonymous)]

Nope. One form.

She didn't have anything else in her name.

Also, calm down. Geez.

[(Anonymous)]

She didn't have her own bank account? She didn't have a job?

Also, what's with the "calm down?" Can you not take it when someone else's experience conflicts with your own anecdotal evidence?
