What is the name of your state? WI
My wife kept her maiden name when we got married due to the fact that she was a teacher and it was easier professionally. We are now adopting a child from China and we really don't want to hyphenate her last name with both of our last names. The baby's name will sound better if we use my wife's last name, but I am wondering if there are any legal ramifications of not using my last name in the baby's last name.
Any advice would be appreciated!
