Hyphen are used for better readability.Hyphens can clarify a domain name that has more than one word in it. But visitors can forget to include them.Also hyphen name are hard to read aloud.It's best to avoid having more than two hyphens in your domain name. It's less trouble for visitors to type and easier to read aloud.It has been suggested that not using spelled-out or roman numerals in domains, as both can be confusing and mistaken for the other.But using many hyphens is not a good idea.It hard to remember too many hyphens to visitor.It is recommended that not to use more 3 hyphens in your URL.For search engines it doesn't matter whether you use hyphen or underscore.

Technically hyphens are recognized as a separator (or space), so they should be used in instances where search engines may not correctly discriminate your keywords.

The drop-offs are also being realized by hyphenated domains.

Is there a search engine that will recognize hyphens so I can search a hyphenated first name?

It is not necessary to insert a hyphen into a name in order to find it in a search engine. Search engines neither differentiate between a hyphen or non hypenated words nor do between capital and lowercase letters. You can, however, put quotes around your search terms, so that only those exact words appear in your search results. For example, "al-jazeera" to find only those search results with those two exact words.
