I agree I have a double standard, which is why I said "oddly". I'm not sure why. Maybe because if anyone is changing their name, names must not be that big a deal, so the names could go either way and someone mucking it up isn't an issue? I'm not sure.

From what you said, though, I misread the situation. If people call him by his wife's name specifically to deride him, that's both a generally disrespectful thing to do and implies there is something wrong with a man taking his wife's name.

However, I really don't agree with you about "emasculate". There are other words to describe humiliation, disrespect, removal of agency that do not imply pride, respect, and agency are inherently masculine.

The show and fandom tended to put Rory down a lot in many different ways and I just never liked it. He was the only character on the show I respected, largely because he was the only one who didn't need to put anyone else down to feel better about himself.

Pride, respect, and agency certainly are not inherently masculine, but sometimes they are a part of someone's identity in their chosen gender identity role. In the case of Rory Williams, and in context with specific scenes within the show, the Doctor's use of Rory Pond was intended as emasculating. Behind the scenes, there are specific reasons for this regarding licence fee payer's response to perceived extreme social liberalism on another programme around the same time that Amy and Rory married. The original intent was that Rory would take his wife's name; after some things on another programme, the Beeb thought that a great many viewers who wouldn't have objected otherwise would do so now. So they rewrote it to include a scene in which Amy and Rory talk about it, with the Doctor there as a witness who interjects his opinion.
