There are lots of reasons for women to keep their maiden name. In the case of my wife, she had two good ones:
-
She didn't want to become disassociated from her scientific publications.

No no it’s PDF file (I know the second file is redundant but that is the trend on YouTube to not get demonetised).

My wife just didn’t want to change hers, so I changed mine instead. No need for a particular reason.
My ex took my last name, because he had siblings with children and my family name would have died with me. It was a gift to my father that his* grandson would carry the family name forwards. And no, that wasn’t a red flag – we were married for 30 years.
- Who cares
I'll admit when I was in my early 20s, it was a point of contention with one girl I was dating. I was young and stupid, my mom took my dad's name, etc.
But by 30, wiser, less prone to drama, I was solidly in the "who cares, do what makes you happy" crowd.
My wife kept her last name. It's easier, and less confusing for her clients and networking.
Grow the fuck up. Stop being so needy and insecure. It's a bad look.
