I never realized there was so many opinions on this topic. I always fiqured I'd go w/ whatever sounded best. Would totally depend on syllables and if his name is atrocious.

As far as children, if you want them to carry your name then you should give it as a middle or first name. I don't think kids should have hyphenated names. IMHO their last name should match their fathers.

My opinons aside, I think I read in Miss Manners once that when a woman gets married, her maiden name is supposed to become her middle name. I'm not sure if you then get two middle or if your supposed to drop you middle name. I would never drop my middle name though.
