If her last name is cooler than mine fuck yes I'd take it. Nobody gives a fuck about Ted Cooper they remember Ted Suuntala.

Simple: don't get married.
Or if you really want to then wait a couple more months.

My friend has a 15 letter hyphenated name as well(technically), but he just goes by the first of his
last names(which happens to be the one that's harder to pronounce -_-), even in school and stuff.

Can't you either change your names after you get married, hold off the wedding until you can change it, or take her last name? Even if she doesn't believe you at first, I'm sure you could convince her you were serious.
If you watch Godzilla backwards it's about a benevolent lizard who helps rebuild a city and then moonwalks into the ocean.

An old friend of mine had a 15 letter last name (Cherwonogrodzky), and that wasn't a joint name. When we were in hockey together(I'm in Canada, it's ritual), his name on his jersey had two lines. He hated it, so I can understand where you're coming from on this whole thing. What I would suggest, like some others here, is to get married and worry about the name thing later, despite the marriage documents looking like a scratch pad by the time you're done with it. Changing your name may be important to you, yes, but I wouldn't push back the wedding if I were you. Hell, depending on where you're getting married, like at a church, you could laugh at the poor bastards that have to do the signs saying your names, watching them try to squeeze it in. Congratulations man, it's an exciting time, don't let something like the length of your last name remove from that.

Unless your last name is "HitlerMussolini", then you might wanna get on it.

LOL, that'd be just godly. Not quite sure how it works, but my brother bought some land in Scotland(Long live the internet ^^) and was legally declared a Lord. I told him to change his name to "Vader", kind of like "Madonna" or "Cher", then he'd be Lord Vader :D

Can't you just name your kids something different? As far as I know it isn't a law that they have to have the same last name (maybe I'm wrong). Just have your wife change her name to the last name you want and wait 6 months to apply for your own name change.
