There oughtta be a law!

Too right! My parents had delusions of grandeur when they got married and welded their names together for we kids. I've long since dropped my mother's maiden name (although it still appears on my birth cert AND on my passport) but had I not I would have had a surname of eighteen letters including the hyphon. Now if you include my first, second and third christian names then that would add up to thirty-two letters. Quite a mouthful!

I prefer Rubrick. It rolls off the tongue so much better....
