Even though I really do not believe this story, this change of name thing should be addressed once and for all. A woman should only change her name if and only if she wants to and not because the husband is forcing her or making her to.
They will change their names now and bear them for so many years only for something to happen and the man will throw her out and then she’s saddled with either keeping the name of a man she now loathes or doesn’t want to have anything to do with anymore or go through another stress of changing her name back. Marries again and is also required to change the name again.
Those of us married to men that have no intention to lord anything over us and make us do anything against our own wishes have no idea what God has done for us.
Let me assume this story is true, yoU left your job to come and be exposing people's life on social media. What is her issue even if husband ask his wife to remove her head. Is she working for an NGO?.
Na Una. Sabi.. If you like don't discuss with your parents or protest about exhibits bride price.. if it's to protest about 2Baba proposal, Una go get power.
But this sort of situation does noy always play out because of Exorbitant bride price. Sometimes, there are people who always want to Lord themselves over others especially if they are bringing nothing to the table. It seems the man in question is munching off her for him to complain about spending extra. If he has the money, that would be the least of his problem because the amount is small. If the wife has siblings who always send her funds, well, that explains his eagerness for the name change.
Hopefully, she survives whatever she signed up for because she has 2 OPTIONS STARING AT HER.
I have seen how w!cked some families behave when you come to marry their daughter, forgetting that the girl would come to live with you after.. Person go use all him life savings marry and then the babe go come talk say she won keep her papa name.. Joke of the century
Petty kang, marry where you can afford ,her life she puts at risk for carry pregnancy for inferior man is far above any rubbish amount of brideprice talkless of what has been expended to educate, feed and take care of her to adulthood. No be kangs like you set the system up? "Brotherhood" of selfishness & inconsideration
God knows i have no plans of officially changing my surname after marriage. Most people I know only changed their surname on their social media handles. Who wan under go that stress?
I also only changed mine on social media because I honestly really wanna bear this good man’s name but because of all the hassle, he suggested I don’t just bother about making it really official. Even did all the newspaper publication and affidavit sef
My religion says answer your papa name. Initially I changed my name,when I discovered my religion supports you answering your papa name,I changed it back.
I love my name and surname(my father's name) my friends still call me by my father's name and i love it, it has a nice ring to it. I call my friends by their fathers name.
My husband made a big deal about name change, i no answer am, i did change of name and news paper publication like 5 or 6 years later and by then he was tired of complaining, i sent a mail to zenith bank and kept calling my account officer to change it but they kept wasting my time and i didn't bother.
2 weeks ago my son's god father took my account number to send some money to me to get something for my boy, he saw that my father's name instead of husband's name and asked why i still bear my father's name? It's his audacity for me given the fact that his own wife still bears her fathers name, how do i know this? I sent her some money and saw it. Long hiss
All that stress for what? Many people I know only add their husband's names to their social media handles, all official documents still bear their maiden names. That's what I intend to do abeg.
I know someone close to me that's experiencing something similar, name change is the least of my worries, we only did newspaper publication cos it was necessary for something we are hoping and praying for. I wouldn't have bothered myself.
The beauty in marriage is that it is not by force. Women carry on about marriage matters so much. After the marriage, it is as if they were forced into it - to get a meal ticket or to get the bragging right over their unmarried women folk. Name change is a simple matter that should be discussed and agreed on before marriage. Though some men may be dubious on it, the woman would in such case have a reason to say no instead of these arguments over being sent to school
By the way, is it not better for a well schooled woman to marry her certificates than to marry a man?
Women who see this issue of name change from the feminism stand are the same as men who see it from the misogynist perspective.
There are some organisations and documentation process that require the name change for the wife or both the husband and wife to benefit from their “coupleship”. For example, some banks will not open a joint account for a couple with two separate surnames.
Women who carry this matter on their heads are those who do not see any benefit in a name change. When when a woman sees such benefit(s), she adopts and compound the first and surname of her husband on her official document. So it is better for a man to have a beneficial name than to fight and force a wife over full real name change, not social media name change.
There are the rare breed of women who do it to honour their husband.
Stella, of all the female Bvs who commented on this post with "I no go gree or do O!" how many of them have a CV bigger or longer than Tara Fela-Durotoye, your Delta Sister who adopted her husband's two names even before the man became a known name? Or well, maybe she did because the man was already building his name profile and she knew he would be big and recognisable in name at least?
Women and some kinds of wahala. One even mention up there that a woman carrying a pregnancy and birthing a child in marriage is to the benefit of her husband. Seriously?

ReplyDeleteImagine the man wanting her to change signature too. May God not allow us meet manipulators like this man.
ReplyDeleteEverybody remain single. Just remain single.
ReplyDeleteThe solution is inferior insecure overbearing men should be held accountable by their fellow men and corrected
DeleteIt depends on documentation after marriage. And it's supposed to be discussed not coerced. 🙄🙄🙄
ReplyDeleteChanging of name is too stressful
