In a book I'm typesetting the name of some fancy lady, "J.H. Hooikaas-Van
Leeuwen Boomkamp".

I do it this way:

J.\thinspace H.~Hooi\-kaas||Van Leeuwen Boomkamp

I am almost sure that the \- before "kaas" is not necessary, but I put it
there just ot be sure. What I wonder (but this is not a texnical question,
sorry) is whether or not I should put thinspaces around the || to imrpove
the looks and logic of the name.

Ideas?

Greetings,

Frans
