A hyphenated married name where the wife wants to keep her own surname her surname comes first and then her husbands. Example: Jane Doe-Smith. Many professionals that have made a name for themselves before they get married prefer to keep their name for notoriety reasons and some young women just want to keep their family surname. It actually makes better sense when a woman combines her maiden name with that of her partners for genealogy purposes. Once a woman is married it is often hard to trace whom she married.
If a man chooses to use a hypnenated name, his surname comes first: John Smith-Doe. Done this way, the names remain searchable in a genealogy database if properly entered.
