[edit] Why did he adopt her surname as his own middle name?
I've heard of couples who hyphenate the marital surname: Bob Smith marries Mary Jones, and they become Bob Smith-Jones (or Jones-Smith) and Mary Smith-Jones (or Jones-Smith).
I've even heard of couples where the husband takes the wife's surname, the reverse of the usual practice: Bob Smith marries Mary Jones, and they are then known as Bob Jones and Mary Jones.
But I've never heard of a husband adopting his wife's surname as his own middle name. Until now. Why did Masaryk do this? -- JackofOz (talk) 02:56, 30 March 2008 (UTC)
