When I divorced, I did not revert to my maiden name. This was simply because it took so long to do all the legal stuff that I already knew I would be getting married again when it came time to change it. 

At that point, though I had similar feelings about my maiden name as you Kristin, it was very important to Mr. Second Husband that I take his name. Though he's fairly liberal, his traditional small town IL upbringing made me reverting to my maiden name not an option for him. It wasn't important enough to me either way to say no.

In a twist of weirdness, Mr. Second Husband's ex-wife didn't change her name... since her maiden name is the same as Mr. Second Husband's...so most people don't realize they're divorced. (I promise they weren't related.)

The biggest challenge I have with all of this is not the logistical... though that part stinks too... its the mental weight of feeling like I belong on Jerry Springer. I never expected to be divorced stepmom with a kids in high school and college (me being only 29). I'm not embarrassed by it, but its awkward to explain the situation to people.
