[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My children have four names - with my last name as a second middle name.  No issue with forms/IDs.  The oldest uses first and last name on most things (work, Linkedin, etc), but has/had all four on things like diplomas.  The second uses the initials of both middle names - again no issues.  We'll see what the third will do (still in high school)&gt;
On the other hand, a few of my nieces/nephews have hyphenated names and have run into problems with &quot;official forms&quot; with the hyphen being left out.
DW and I didn't hyphenate our children's because of the length of the surnames (one is two syllables, the other three).  Regardless, we are naming our children not future generations.  Among our nieces and nephews one has given his children his hyphenated surname name, another one only one of the surnames from his parents, and a third is using part of her birth surname and her husband's surname.  So the naming convention is all over the map in our extended family.[/quote]

This. I've seen more issues/annoyance from children with hyphenated last names, which is why I think using the mother's last name as the second middle name is the better route (but of course to each their own).[/quote]
