I hate this for the obvious reasons but it’s especially annoying to me because my wife didn’t take my surname!

      to: Dr. Jækel Hydensen with Family.

      Probably not proper English but point is you refer to the “other” as the named recipient’s family

        to: Dr. Jækel Hydensen and Family would be better in English.

        We sometimes send things to “The Hydensen Family” but that does seem to assume that the heads of the family have the same last name.
