Hello everybody!
I'm getting married in July and am planning on taking my fiancee's last name. I'd really love to publish under this name, and I have a single publication under my current name on work I did in my undergrad (unrelated to my current work, and I don't see myself ever going back to that subfield). In looking for other's experience in taking their partner's last name while working in academia, I've seen almost everyone saying they either kept their maiden name, took their partner's name but published under their maiden name, or published under their new name and ended up regretting it.
I guess my question is: is it an inherently bad idea to take and start publishing under her name? The lack of information about people who have done this makes me hesitant to do this.
