Currently my name is, for the sake an anonymity, John Obama-Romney. She will take Romney. I too wish to take that name.

    Default Re: To Change the Mans Name Before Marriage or After

    It appears in Minnesota, unless you have been convicted of a Felony, you both can pick whatever name you want to use at the time of applying for the marriage license and that will become your legal name after marriage. There doesn't seem to be any restriction on the names used. You could change your names to William and Hillary Clinton if you wanted.
