Women can have the choice.Continue using her current surname,take the partner's surname,change to a double-barrelled surname or take the partner's surname & her current surname into a middle name.
After marriage,I would not insist my wife to change her surname.

Its not a legal requirement just common practice.The woman can keep her maiden name, the man can take the womans if he wants or they can hyphenate it and have a double barrelled name.
Its up to them really

I believe in respecting the woman's wishes, but I feel sorry for descendants trying to research their family.

Im pretty sure yea....but then again if she wants to keep her last name i think she can do that to... or shell move her last name to her middle name and then have your last name as her last name
Make sense?
Good luck

I would cry if I was the child of a family that continuosly hyphenated their last name with each marriage.
we now go many, many years into the future where a new coulple is pronounced Mr and Mrs. Anderson-Wales/Mitchel- Donladson/Smith-Abdul/Walters-Flynn/Dean MacCall/Roberts-Kain/Margolin-Santiago/Johnes-Smithe III

Of course not! It should be optional. You pass your whole life, your childhood, school.... etc with your name and then all of a sudden someone comes and gives you another name! This is not fair!
Luckily for me in my country, Turkey ,this is optional. Women don't need to take their husbands' last names if they do not want to.

If she so wishes. She could just go the hyphenated route common in most spanish speaking countries, that's cool too.

I think so, it's symbolic of a "union", which is what marriage is.

Meh i say if her name fit better with yours then take hers. Or you both can keep your last names.

why not both
the children should have the name of both father and mother to show their complete heritage as they do in all Latin countries
