    Affirming a trial court's denial of a mother's petition to change her minor children's surname from their father's surname to a hyphenation of the mother's name and the father's surname

    E.g., Application of Saxon, 309 N.W.2d 298 (Minn. 1981), rejecting a change of the surname of seven and nine year old children from that of father to a hyphenated name reflecting mother's maiden surname which she resumed after her divorce and the surname of father; Burke v. Hammonds, 586 S.W.2d 307 (Ky.App. 1979); Wearn v. Wray, 139 Ga. App. 363, 228 S.E.2d 385 (1976); Laks v. Laks, 25 Ariz. App. 58, 540 P.2d 1277 (1975). In the instant case, Judge Hennegan analyzed the evidence before him with a proper view to what was in the best interest of the children.
