And many countries have never had the the culture of changing family names on marriage.
- AnimalMuppet 11y agoNo. But in those countries, one's mother still had a family name at birth that is different from one's own (in almost all cases), whether she changed it at marriage or not.
- msellout 11y agoAnd therefore one's mother's last name is even more public than a "maiden name".
