Toya Carter will not Drop Last Name

After being married to Lil Wayne for two years, Toya Carter had enough of him always being gone. Because she was young with her whole life ahead of her, she decided to divorce the rapper. This was right before he became the boss of the rap game. Despite their divorce, the two remain good friends.

During the first season of "Tiny & Toya," Toya admitted that she was not over Lil Wayne. However, recently she said that she is happy for him and his other children. Toya went as far as to say that she is actually good friends with Nivea. It was then that she admitted that she was moving on with her life.

Many assume that in order to move on with her life, Toya would first have to give up her last name. Despite divorcing Lil Wayne, she has kept his last name. Even as she moves on with her life, Toya will remain a Carter. When she was asked about possibly taking her old last name, Toya said that she will keep the Carter name.

While some feel that she is doing this to stay close to Lil Wayne, that is not the case. Yes, she is still friends with Lil Wayne, but she no longer desires a relationship with him. The reason that Toya wants to keep her last name is because of her daughter, Reginae. She has Lil Wayne's last name and Toya wants the same last name as her daughter. Toya does not want to bother her daughter in all of the hassle of changing the last name of a child. It would be a lot easier on her to simply keep the Carter last name as opposed to changing her child.
