[quote=Anonymous]DH has a difficult last name for many Americans to pronounce. We've been in other countries and had no issue with pronunciation. I chose to tack his name on (no hyphen) to mine after a space. Most people give a long pause after my maiden name before attempting DH's name. I automatically know they are calling on me. Doing things this way (no hyphen) can be a pain depending on what computer system is in use. Some won't allow spaces, some have trouble with the length, some drop either name, and some run the two names together. They kids have DH's last name. When I registered them for school, I only every use DH's last name for mine. So, we never have an issue there. I did the same for most registrations.[/quote]
