I also had difficulty deciding whether or not to change my last name. I ended up keeping my own name but now that I'm pregnant, I'm thinking of changing my last name to my husbands for the exact same reasons you did. People gave me such a hard time about keeping my name, but it just made the most sense for me at the time. It also makes sense for me to change my name at this time, too. I say, do what feels right and don't give in to pressure from anyone. My husband never pushed me either way because he always felt it was my decision and my decision alone.
