      If it’s a legal name change. But I assume a lot of Hollywood names aren’t legally changed, but more similar to a pen name.

      It depends on how much paperwork you do when you change your names, how much autocracy you want to fight

      When my ex divorced me she warned me me she wasn’t going through that again so I just need to deal with her keeping my name. She kept half of everything else of mine so I guess it’s no difference

        Well that was the thing. If we did it off the bat it was like a checkbox, but to do it later is a larger nuissance than the nuissance of them being different.
