It would be obvious if you said, 'why do many liberal women hyphenate their names,' and not imply they all do.

EDIT: I see you clarified it a bit in your post.

My niece........named Jaimie........just married a guy named Jayme. Yes the confusion will reign down........lol. Eight last names...........most terrorists fit that category.........liberals are just trying to catch up.

I never have run across a conservative woman with a hyphenated name unless she is a prominent figure or is already famous. Now you do see a lot of that with women who are famous or their name is their brand of sorts or even women in business I have seen it there as well. I am amazed on how many women I meet with hyphenated name are liberal, sometime they put there last name first and sometimes they put the husbands name last. I just don't know much about the subject except that majority of hyphenated names tend to be liberal woman. Just an observation anyone with any info on this?

I've also noticed this. I'll chime in with why I didn't hyphenate my name when dh and I married.

When dh and I were married, we formed a new family and I wanted us all to have the same last name to show we were a family (dh had custody of 2 of his 3 children from his first marriage). To me, hyphenating my name would have meant I wasn't truly part of this new family. Tradition has it the woman changes her name and tradition doesn't bother me so I changed my name.

In academia, many women keep their last names to maintain continuity in their C.V.

I always figured that it was a way to retain a part of her family's identity.

I retained my original name after marriage. Why wouldn't I? It wouldn't occur to me to do otherwise.

I did inform Mr. Zenstyle at the time that he was certainly welcome to change his last name to mine, however!

It all has to go with the feminist movement and NOW. They have destroyed the country.
