I recently changed my last name, now it has a space (Casseres Palmer). I just say something along the lines of, "My last name has a space, not a dash." I haven't really found it difficult to use. Out of all my licenses and IDs, only one of them has a dash in it. I don't know if it's because of the database limitation, or the person who entered it in assumed it has or needed a dash. My university, work, and other companies that I deal with have no problem accepting a last name with a dash.
