A couple with whom I am acquainted, and who are both very liberal in their views, having married when they were both middle aged, decided to hyphenate both their names, so that the former Ms. Smith and Mr. Johnson both now use the name Smith-Johnson. The interesting part is what name their children would use (they don't have any, in fact). If they used the same name as their parents, what would you have if young Ms. Smith-Johnson were to marry Mr. Robinson-Brown? Only a theoretical problem, however, as I don't believe this kind of name coupling is very common. I do know several women who have hyphenated their maiden name with their husband's name, but the children all use the husband's name only.
