Here in Brazil some time ago every woman had to do it when they got married, but now they choose if they want to get her husband's surname or not. Still, if the husband wants, he can do it, instead of the wife.

There's no such thing as 'married name' in China - women here never change their names for the marriage. Sound strange?
