I find it odd that someone will get a divorce and then retain the last name of the man they divorced.

One word: Demi Moore.

If you didn't establish a significant career until after you got married to your first husband, you would be in the same situation as someone who got married for the first time later in life: most people know you by a certain name, whether it's your maiden name or the name of your first husband. Either way, it would be confusing to your professional crowd (for a little while, at least) if you changed your name at that point.

I got married when I was still in college, I did the first name, maidien name, married last name for that year to create a transition and after a year or so, I quitely dropped the maiden name.

What irritates me the most about Demi is that she was DEmi early on, in General Hospital and Blame It on Rio, and all of a sudden she turned into deMI. Poseur.
