Also anyone who publishes in professional journals. It makes it hard to find a person's earlier published research, and confirm it's the same author, if they change their name midstream. I had a friend from college who got married to a high school sweetheart and hyphenated her last name with his. Got her PhD in psychology, published a number of articles and also held several teaching positions. Then she and her husband amicably divorced, but she kept her hyphenated name and continued publishing and teaching under that name.
