THINK OF THE CHILDREN!!1
my buddy and his two brothers have hyphenated last names. They don't have middle names so it relieves the confusion a little bit. The older bro goes by the dads last name now (no hyphen) the younger brother goes by the mom's last name (no hyphen) and the middle child goes by the full hyphenated name...weird.
it can cause confusion...but for the people who matter...it won't matter.
You are correct on that one. I actually once had a call at work where the wife had a hyphen named, the husband had a hyphen named, she hadn't taken his name...I felt sorry for the kids it they have some.....The four names involved where hard to pronounce...
