What if two people with hyphenated names get married and want to... hyphenate? Do they end up with 4 surnames? And then their kids end up with 8? 16? 32?
It's a stupid idea.
My thoughts too. Smith-Jones marries White-Brown and the kids become Smith-Jones-White-Brown. Good luck with your signature.
If women want to keep their surname more power to them but hyphenated names are stupid. In Italy, for example, the women don't change their surname when they get married.

@jegga it was funny seeing clips of him from his bullshit interview today, talking camp and a slight lisp. Then they'd show a clip from a couple of years ago...no camp...no lisp...hmmm
My guess is some bloke he'd been nailling was about to sell his story to the tabloids .
makes that clip about him talking about different genres of porn even funnier in retrospect.

China and other parts of Asia too. This is over-complication

First time I've ever encountered this. I thought the hyphenated names were the perfect solution for the kids, not adults.
Was wondering who "ex kiwi league international " Robbie Hunter-Paul was...
*Hunter-Paul is well placed to comment on Super League impact.
The Aucklander - best known in New Zealand as Robbie Paul before hyphenating his name when he married Lisa Hunter in 2010 β spent his entire 19-year professional career in England.*
From an article on stuff talking up SBW
What if two people with hyphenated names get married and want to... hyphenate? Do they end up with 4 surnames? And then their kids end up with 8? 16? 32?
It's a stupid idea.
Both parents hyphenating is, but children adopting hyphenated names works perfectly well for hundreds of millions of people.

BBC breakfast this morning is mostly some Keifer Sutherland lookalike awkwardly stalking the red carpet outside the Oscars after party.
Is this the bizarre out of touch state of the media where they think this is the kind of breakfast TV we want to see or am I the one that's out of touch?
At least in between cuts to the red carpet we can talk about diversity.

This kicked off today, I don't really care who wins . Apparently the woman in the top photo in the story is the same one in the other three photos though

I saw that - clearly an 'expectation vs reality' picture

Sir Elton lost his right to at any point to be on a soap box about climate, given he flew his private jet NZ - LA return to make his appearance.
I'm just glad in his case I can still seperate the art from the artist. Will be seeing him live in a couple weeks..ear plugs might be necessary if he's gonna do a sermon during the show.

have to be pretty old school to consider putting something like this in media...alternatively, if it has been a hard to fill role, this will generate alot of publicity, so might end up in front of the right couple, so a marketing ploy...

Thatβs fascinating.
