[quote=Anonymous]I came from a spanish speaking country. My mother added my dad's surname to hers as a second surname. I have one surname from my dad and another one from my mom. So if my father is Larlo Smith and mom is Larla Jones de Smith, i'm Larlita Smith Jones. I kept that name after marriage. I've never encountered administrative issues with my name. All the paperwork I had to complete asks to differentiate between my name and my surnames explicitely so nobody has messed up my passport or bank accounts because I have two surnames. Most of these paperwork doesn't even ask for my marital status and when it does it becomes to obvious that my husband and I don't share a surname, so there's no room for confusion. Admins aren't paid to enforce naming conventions, they're paid to work with whatever you write in the forms. All those issues that happen when you keep your name generally happen with nosy people who don't know their place, which shouldn't be a big deal.[/quote]
