The only thing is that it's annoying when you get kids.
Do they take both names? If so, you are just pushing the issue of choosing to your kids. At some point someone needs to drop some fucking names.
We decided our daughter would take my name because my wife's brother had two sons that would continue her family name. And considering my daughter is queer, it's not all that likely she's going to have a kid anyway. Not that we knew that at the time (although I used to joke that I hoped she would be because I wouldn't have to worry about her getting pregnant as a teen).
Edited to clarify.
"her brother" as in the wife's brother?
Yes, my brother-in-law.
Do they take both names?
This happened in my family, to me, and yes. My middle and last names are my parents last names. Another person I know took the hyphenated version of their parents last names.
Then what do you do with your kids. Give them 4 names?
They use their mom's last name.
I grew up in a house where my mother, my, and my stepfathers last names were all different. It caused small problem maybe... twice. It's really not a big deal.
