    Will you be changing your name with your bank, accountant, etc? I don't know much about this but I would assume you might need to look into this in a bit more depth but I'm sure its possible.

    you can get your bank to put nee Clarke on your cards so for your business they will still accept payments in your maiden name

    I have a PhD in my maiden name, but in Science we usually keep our maiden names (as its easier to keep all our publicatiosn etc.) and then have my legal 'home' surname!

    I don't see anything wrong with keeping your maiden name for work purposes, especially if it's your own business xx

    No-one says that when you marry it is a legal requirement to take your husband's surname. I know many people who have kept their maiden name in work and for business

    Absolutely. I considered this as I was published in my maiden name. As it turns out, I've moved out of that sector now so no-one would give a monkeys LOL!
