[quote=Anonymous]I had a hyphenated name growing up and did not like it. I'm sure things like standardized tests and computer systems are much better these days, but it was such a pain for me growing up. My name wouldn't fit in the bubbles on tests so I had to omit the last 1 or 2 letters and I honestly had trouble with colleges accepting my SAT scores because the name on my college application didn't match the name on my SAT results. When I turned 18 I legally changed my last name (kept stepdad's last name and dropped biological dad's last name) and then had to carry around the court docs in college to prove my identity. [/quote]
