Lovely name!
Is it common in Russia to have hyphenated last names? It's not unusual in the US, and obviously Spanish and Latin countries use both last names.
I haven't come across many Russians with hyphenated names. Most female skaters keep their original surnames after marriage (i.e. Katia Gordeeva), but the kids have the same last name as their dad. Even among Americans, I don't see as many kids with hyphenated surnames as I did 15-20 years ago.
