Change name after the Big D?

[waw1978]

I just got my final court date and in two weeks will be divorced.

I want to change my name back to my maiden name. I don't feel right walking around with XH's name. But I have gotten a slew of unsolicited comments when people have asked and I told them it will be restored to the maiden name ASAP.

Seems people feel I should keep the name because of my daughter.

What do you all think? Any experiences with this? did you keep it or change it back or hyphenate? Anyone regret their decision?
