I thought I was smarter than I apparently actually am. If Pablo Sanchez Garcia marries Isabella Martinez Lorca...she becomes Isabella Sanchez Martinez...correct?

And if they have a daughter...named Maria...she is also Isabella Sanchez Martinez???

Its apparently been too long since I thought about all of this.

From what I've looked at on the internet it seems that nowadays there are lots of laws that allow for names to be kind of personalized however women/men may want them. But what is the general/traditional sense?
Ann I think the wife (traditionally) becomes Isabella Sanchez de Martínez (implying "wife of").

Evan The traditional naming pattern is Father's name + Mother's maiden name

If a woman marries,she will frequently just keep her name: Isabella Martinez Lorca

If she decides to use de, she would usually drop the Mother's maiden name and then add de Husband's father's name

Isabella Martinez de Sanchez
