I am going to hyphenate my last name when I get married.

I decided to do so because when I get my PhD, I will be the first "Dr. anything" in my family which is something I am extremely proud and excited about. Also, my fiances dad and uncle have doctorates and I don't want to be called the same thing as them.

I never thought about what my children would be called, but I assumed they would simply take his last name. I like DSTRen's solution, though!

I plan on keeping my name. Even though we were never engaged it was a HUGE issue with my ex. That is one of the many reasons he is now my ex. WHO ARE YOU to tell me who I will be for the rest of my life?! My father only has daughters so one of us has got to fight the good fight.
