What is bizarre is I know a couple who almost killed each during their ugly divorce procedure, and the woman tried to squeeze him for every last cent and still, years on, refuses to drop his surname.

It makes him irate that she won't drop the name and is now thinking about going the legal route. Personally, I think he should feel a bit honored that she wants to keep the name.
Listen, I get it, no one wants to stand in that Home Affairs line for an entire day when you first get married and do the name change, you have to CHANGE everything which is a time-consuming act and now you have to do it once more... yikes!
If you have been divorced before, how would you feel if your partner was to keep your surname?
