[quote=Anonymous]I hyphenated for the "future" (now current) kids and I shouldn't have. I don't see the value in having the same name, especially now that so many women are keeping their names. But at work people stumble over what to call me, since I introduce myself as Smith but Smith-Jones appears on everything legally. I've gotten locked out of websites trying to login because sometimes it's in the system as Smith-Jones, or Smithjones, or Smith Jones, or Smith, or Jones, depending on how someone initially entered it. People we meet assume and call me Jones even though I hate going by Jones. Especially without the hyphen, people will leave out the Smith. In the grand scheme of life it's a minor annoyance, but it's definitely an annoyance that comes up all the time.[/quote]
