When hubby and I were planning our wedding, he actually asked me if I thought we should both hyphenate our names. My maiden name has Welsh roots and is difficult to pronounce; his has Native American roots and is never mispronounced (think: ClearWater; Stands with Fist (ha)). We figured any combination of our names would sound odd and would most likely be mispronounced, so I decided just to take his name. My maiden name is now my middle name.

And I echo the others who have said the OP's friend needs to step back and really look at what's going on.
