Well if it is a top/bottom relationship they might keep the top's, but they could just keep their own or hyphenate them. They really could just decide randomly.

Alternate View:

Marriage is a lifetime commitment and sexual roles are not necessarily relevant. Other factors that are considered when deciding whose surname to use are: (1) citizenship (and how that affects the name change process); (2) personal preference (some names are just nicer than others); (3) ethnic identity; (4) family ties (someone estranged from his father is more likely to give up his father's surname); (5) professional license (a professional spouse is less likely to agree to change surnames because it might obscure his reputation and achievements).

In a handfasting marriage does the woman take the man's last name?

In a handfasting marriage, whether or not the woman takes the man's last name is a personal choice that can vary depending on the couple's preferences. Handfasting ceremonies are often non-traditional and allow for flexibility in customs and rituals, so there are no set rules or expectations regarding the adoption of a new last name. Ultimately, the decision would be made by the individuals involved in the marriage.
