Hello.

I am going to be getting married in 2017 and I was wondering if and how would this would work.

Ill give example names so i don't use my real name.

If my name is Anna Rose Chambers and my finances name is Chad Tyler Dunn, could I legally change my name to Anna Rose Dunn - Chambers and his to Chad Tyler Dunn - Chambers.

Is that possible?

Is that legal?

Please let me know I hope this isn't confusing and makes sense.
