Surname choices survey

The Discourses of Marriage research group have now embarked on an additional project, in which we hope to investigate the choices a range of people in a variety of situations have made (or would make) in relation to their surnames if/when they marry. With same-sex marriages now recognised in England, Wales and Scotland, marriage traditions appear less one-size-fits-all than ever, so we'd like to know what impact this might have on our names. We've got a survey *out now!*, in which we hope to find out how widespread various practices are, and what sorts of things - such as putting children into the equation - might influence the decision.

Please complete our survey! It's available at https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/surnames. We'll be back to share our findings soon....

Thanks!
