December 6, 200421 yr I'm interested to know from any gentleman who's been married in Thailand in the last couple of years whether your wife kept her surname or took yours. What was the thinking behind your/her decision?
December 6, 200421 yr We were married in the UK but not in Thailand and my wife kept her family name and I am happy that she has done so. On the other hand my first wife changed her name when we married and still keeps it. Don't know why.
December 6, 200421 yr My wife changed her surname, mainly so we all have the same name. We are Mr and Mrs tukyleith and Kitty tukyleith.

December 6, 200421 yr I'm interested to know from any gentleman who's been married in Thailand in the last couple of years whether your wife kept her surname or took yours. What was the thinking behind your/her decision? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> we were married in aussie many years ago now. my wife kept her original surname because her "na ayudhya" suffix is a useful tool in LOS and she also has a reasonbly well known family name in certain circles.
December 6, 200421 yr My wife took my surname, but my step-daughter still has my wife's ex-husband's surname. i would be interested to know if she can take my surname as well or not ?
December 6, 200421 yr I'm getting married next year and my gf wants to have my second name. Which means alot to me. So when we have kids they will grow up and carry on my name.
December 6, 200421 yr My wife is still under her family name as at the time I was told It would create a problem with land ownership etc. I've been told otherwise since, Is it true?

The farang has to sign some document, which states they make no claim to the land and that the money to purchase the land is hers or something like that. I just purchased two houses for my wife - no problems !!

The other house is for the mother-in-law, so she doesn't have to live with us !!
December 6, 200421 yr still knocking it huh / lay off and close this boring stuff about names !!! <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Is this meant for me or Kurgan? He's a mate actually just having a joke.
December 7, 200421 yr Mrs Bronco took my name, no problems, next step is for stepson, by deed poll I guess
December 8, 200421 yr Wife took my surname when she became pregnant. She wants the baby to have a British name amd passport. Why I do not know
December 8, 200421 yr My ex-wife never changed her name. Technically illegal, I think, but we never had any problems here or in the UK, or when we got divorced here.
December 8, 200421 yr Mrs Bronco took my name, no problems, next step is for stepson, by deed poll I guess <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Deedpoll in Thailand??? How? My stepson wants to do the same thing, but the Thai's tell me I have to adopt him in the UK.......... That means a change of nationality -- very difficult.
