Newly Married: To Change My Name Or Not?

I just got married. Again. This one is forever, of that I am sure. I could not be happier. But, it has been eight years now that I have been using my maiden name again, and those eight years were critical growth years for my career. I feel like I would be discarding my professional brand identity if I were to change my name to my newly married name.On the flip side, I am so happy to be married. And so proud of being "Mrs." I want the world to know and I want to represent us as a family. Then, of course, there is the three-letter monogram that I have been craving for years! (My parents did not give me a middle name on the premise that when I married, my last name would become my middle name and I wouldn't have to drop any part of my identity.)Professionally, I want to use my maiden name. Personally, I want to use my married name. The question is: what do I do legally? Change it or keep it the same?Legally changing a name is a painful process - social security card first, then driver's license, then passport. Then credit cards, bank accounts and mortgage. I know the process -- I've done it twice now. After my divorce, I swore I would never change my name again regardless of love and marriage that might be in my future.But now that I have met the true love of my life and know we will be together forever, I think the hassle is worth it. And I will be legally adding that third letter to my monogram. It might be old-fashioned of me, but after weighing all the options I am ready to jump in and claim my married name.
