And I took my wife's last name when we married. 
This caused no end of confusion at the marriage office, with their Borland C "Turbo Vision" Text menu system app, with a space for a "maiden" name for the female to change her name, but not the male…

Consider orang-utans.
In all the worlds graced by their presence, it is suspected that they can talk but choose not to do so in case humans put them to work, possibly in the television industry. In fact they can talk. It's just that they talk in Orang-utan. Humans are only capable of listening in Bewilderment.
