    It’d be interesting if men took on their wife’s first name, so it would immediately indicate to others if a man was married or not. And then there’d be pushback, in the same way there is to the ‘Mrs’ and ‘Miss’ titles, and parents would start naming their sons with female names to start with. (it works less well the other way around, because there’s already girls called ‘Dylan’ and ‘Taylor’, etc).
