Im old fashioned - I will take my husbands last name.

If I ever get married I am taking my husband's name. I am an only daughter so my brothers will pass the name on. Won't do the thing of making my current last name my middle either because my actual middle name is a family name with a lot of meaning. So as for the kids they will go by his last name as well.

Plus, i am not hyphenating my extremely hard to spell and very long last name with two others!
Alas arises an issue . . .

I played hockey with a kid, let's call him David Smith-Jones . . . mother took a hyphenated name, after a divorce he ended up (legally) with her last name. Now, if he gets married, does the woman take the hyphenated name? Her own? Add a third, and hyphenate the whole damn thing?

Gets tricky about that point - so I guess the point is, do what you want, but you might have to make bizarre decisions later on, and names aren't that hard to change - just gets funny.

I like my last name. If I ever meet the future Mr. Cream, then I will consider taking his last name if I like it. Maybe a hyphen. So far no Mr., so no problem.
