And this is why I didn't change my name when I got married. I already had a middle name that I liked- it is my godmother's name. I wasn't comfortable just dropping it and using my last name as my middle name. I also really like my last name, and since my Dad is a geneologist I know the history behind it and am proud of that. And my name and my husband's name don't hyphenate well. So I ended up keeping my name. (My kids have my husband's last name but the cats have my last name!). So now when telemarketers call and ask for "Mrs. Husband's name" I can honestly say there is noone there by that name!
