Massachusetts Court Allows Maiden Names on Birth Records
The Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court ruled 5 to 2 that married women may use their maiden names on official documents and pass those names to their children. Clerks cannot assign children's surnames by paternal or maternal line, rejecting claims to enforce traditional surname customs. The decision, written by Justice Robert Braucher, cites common law and 1974 AG opinions affirming name choice if no fraud.
