I don't like this question, because I'm sure that she was always called Amy Farrah Fowler, implying, at least, that her maiden name was Fowler. But it is the only one of the four that has been on for 10 seasons.

That's what I thought. So the question is invalid.

No, it's not. Juch, as usual, provides his Google knowledge and knows nothing about the actual show being discussed. The wedding at the start of season 9 was a spontaneous one in Las Vegas. The gang watched a live stream of the ceremony. Penny & Leonard argued afterwards and spent the night apart. In fact, Leonard spent that wedding night with Sheldon.

Later, when Leonard's mom finds out they had married and not included/informed her, they decided to do a "re-do" ceremony, which would include all their friends and families. This wedding was in the first episode of Season 10.

The question was, "The surnames of the four main male characters may be well-known, but as of her Season 10 wedding, what show's lead female character's maiden name was still a secret? "

Since Penny had a Season 9 wedding AND a Season 10 wedding the question is valid.

5K: Focus on the year. Amy, whose full name we know, got married *dthis* year. But the other shows haven't had 10 seasons I don't think.
