OK- lot of good ones...now i need to narrow it down, what goes with Wanda Lea? (not crazy about my first name either but I'm keeping it). Like I said-my maiden is not an option. I have been divorced for 2 years and just don't want the name any more.

Use it with your fist name and see which one strikes a chord with you.

I know a guy who changed his last name to Sparrow. I thought that was kind of cool. It depends on your first name. I would go to a site where you can look up names by their meaning and find a word that either describes you or what you aspire to be and go from there.
such as:
http://www.babycentre.co.uk/babyname/
Like lets say that you aspire to bring peace to the land, you might choose "Amani"
Good Luck
And BTW you can change your name to whatever you want, you just have to prove to a judge that you aren't doing it to avoid a debt and you have to pay for it. But if I could find a name I really liked, and i didn't think it would so deeply wound my parents, I would change my entire name in a heartbeat.

As far as I know, you can't pick a last name out of a hat when you divorce. It either automatically goes back to your maiden name or stays your married name.

I think you should change your name to what best fits you and your first name, Like if your Name is Joan then maybe Joan purpleshirt, but if your name is say, bonni be sure not to choose a name that starts with a "J" other wise youll be known as "BJ"

A last name is a huge choice. You should seriously try and make it mean something, I suggest going back into your ancestry. A name that holds some heartfelt personal sentiment would be best.

maybe "single"? lol... one of my favorite last names ever is Shikendanz... I forget the actual spelling, but it's pronounced "shick a dance".
If you want to avoid a lot of the people you talked to, change your last name to something generic like Jones, Jackson, or Smith.
You can take my last name... Barber... =D

MacKenzie...though I am a bit partial to it! Maybe pick the name of a favorite celebrity or famous person you admire.

Why stop with the last name - change all three that way you'll have so many fun choices :-)
