I'd use one or the other. I'm not such a fan of the hyphenated names as they are too cumbersome. IMO, of course!

I agree with Julez, but if you really don't want to lose your own surname, then I would go with Susan Gundersen-Miceli. It has more of a ring to it

yea, ive thought about that too, i would probably stick with my own name...its just a pain in the ####### to change everything...we will see i guess

I changed my name to my first husband's name even though I didn't want to, so when I got married this time I was quite anxious to change my name to Griff's!

If you don't want to change your name completely, I think your best bet is to not change it at all.

thanks. it might seem weird, but i feel like i cant just dump my last name...a last name says something about a person doesnt it? where they come from and who their family is? i know that he will be my family, and i love albania, but im not albanian, and thats not a physical part of me...i guess i dont know how to explain it really

definitely a thought

No, I understand where you are coming from. Personally though, I am looking forward to changing mine. I really don't think mine would sound right hyphenated!

And I don't think its weird at all that you don't want to change your name. For me, I wish the first time I hadn't changed my name, but I think I would have still changed my name this time around if I hadn't the first time.

It took me a long time to decide but I eventually decided on being traditional and just took his name. I now have a Greek name that no-one ever spells correctly.

Where did Scott get a Greek name from?

Miceli sounds nice If you wanna keep yours too I think I like the Gundersen-Miceli combination better I don´t mind when names are too long. Spanish/Mexican people often take their mothers´ and fathers´ names also and they have like 4 names each of them But if it becomes a name that´s 16 names long then it becomes confusing If you wanna have any kids, what name do you wanna give them? And where did you get the Gundersen name from? Sounds Skandinavian
