I am 99% positive that it is a matter of personal preference. My mother-in-law and I both live in Alabama and I dropped my middle named and kept my maiden name and my mother-in-law dropped her maiden name and kept her middle name. When you go to the DMV and Social Security office to change your name on your documents, you just show them your marriage certificate and tell them how you want your new name. Simple as that. I had to go through the whole name change a year ago and they told me I could do either.

I have never heard of dropping your middle name and keeping your maiden name! But it sounds like its pretty common? When I got married in June of 05 I dropped my maiden name and use my married name. When I went to get my drivers liscense and my social security card, they didnt even ask me if I wanted to keep my maiden name they just changed everything to Heather Lynn Everett. My name was Heather Lynn Bowers!

I am sure it is just whatever you want to do. Matter of personal preference.

I hadn't ever heard of keeping your maiden name as your middle name. I just changed my maiden last name to my husband's last name.

That's so funny how everyone does it differently. I thought it was strange to keep your middle name and drop your maiden name. I dropped my middle name and my maiden name became my new middle name and my hubby's last name is my new last name.
