"What will your name be?"
My students have asked me that a lot recently. It's a very thoughtful question and I'm glad they've asked.
Since we are both in our 30s and have established careers, had articles published, and even created a website or two using our birth names, we'll still be Don Allan Mitchell and Shelley Collins after The Big Day! A few of my students have tried to call Chip "Mr. Dr. Collins," but they're just kidding. I hope. :)
