I can relate to your wife. I left a nice four letter last name to marry into a spelling test everytime I give my new last name.

I married out of the spelling test. It's a relief.

My maiden name wasn't four letters, but it was common. My married name I must spell out constantly. The worst part is, it is an English name, spelt just like it sounds. It's just not that common of a name. If it was Polish or Slavic or something I wouldn't mind so much.

Yep. It ain't all peaches and cream when you go from "Jones" to "Lindauer" or something. (Lindauer is a friend---not my name)
