In Greece there are different male/female variants of the same surname, so it would be normal for a married couple to have slightly different surnames.

e.g Papadopoulou vs Papadopoulos.

Then there are the cases where a Greek wife takes the male surname form to co-exist more easily in other countries where it is expected for a husband/wife surname to match (or if different, be more considerably different).
