Maybe it shouldn't, but it really does surprise me how many people seem baffled by hyphenated last names. It's not like this a brand new concept ... My husband and I (we have the same last name, but hyphenated) will give people our driver's licenses so they can copy it down from there, and they STILL will get confused. Not that hard, people ...
I know. I really wish I had just kept my last name and not bothered with the hyphen.

I kept my middle and last names...and added my husband's to the end of it, so I now have 2 middle names and didn't lose who I was for the first 25 years of my life.

I kept my name when I got married, and haven't regretted it for a day. It is so much easier- didn't have to change anything. And it doesn't make me any less married!
Oh, and no it doesn't confuse my kids. They learned (or will learn) that this is daddy's last name and this is mommy's. To them it's no big deal.

My daughter's last name is hyphenated, because her father and I weren't married when she was born. When she lived with me, she went by lilnikki mommy'slastname. When she lived with her dad, she went by lilnikki daddy'slastname. She goes by his last name now.
