[Facts] Marriage names

Okay, something has been bothering me for a long time. I'm going to make up a scenario here. Let's say that there is a girl named Danielle Steel and a guy named Kavalier Clay. Let's pretend that they are getting married. Traditionally, the girl's new name would be Mrs. Kavalier Clay. But is it okay for the guy to be Mr. Danielle Steel? I mean, I don't see why the guys should always get to have their names. Does anyone think that it makes the guy sound less manly? It shouldn't. Let's have some equality here!

Ciao! Zaragoza
