On topic (Shocked), knowing myself, I'll probably continue to use hyphened form of the word. lol

That's fine with me.  I don't care.  I skip commas and such every once-in-a-while.  Now, if it was an essay, that's when I do care.  My last one only received a B+.  Then again, I really didn't take much time on it; I changed writing styles a time or two (maybe 3), and probably missed some punctuation.  Little disappointing, but for something impromptu, well, I've heard of worse.

My guess is, if I was anywhere near what I should be in world history, this would be pretty funny.

Karma anyway

If they're anything like hyphenated screen names, it could very well be up to the individual.

Actually, I think hyphenated first names have been going by the wayside for some time now.
