Hi ladies! I'm getting married in June and have been planning to keep my last name for professional reasons (I'm a published writer and a professor and want to continue publishing and teaching under my maiden name). But now I'm wondering if I can keep my last name and add his without hyphenating. First Middle Maiden Last. Does anyone know if Pennsylvania allows this? I know some states require you to hyphenate and some require you to switch the maiden name to a middle, but I want my legal last name to be Maiden Last with no hyphen. Is that possible?
