The closer to the head of the alphabet your are, the "better" you catch is. I think that when my wife moved from a "Welch" to a "Czarnecki" she did pretty good. Oh no! But what will our (future) daughters do? (For those of you who want to flame that a woman doesn't HAVE to change her name when she marries and that I am a horrible cretin for forcing my wife to accept such a concise melodious name like "Czarnecki", consider the fact that she wanted my name voluntarily. It was a decision that she made. (and I don't necessarily approve of)) -- -- Laying here, Lyin' in bed.
