Women in Hatzalah: It is in the name/s

A second, of the supposedly 200 women wanting to join Hatzalah, is out in public, as part of what seems to be a renewed push in their campaign against Hatzalah. In a recent AP article, Lawyer Freir maintains that it "has nothing to do with feminism." What I find interesting is, that the other lady who went public on the issue is someone going in the Forward by two surnames, "Lerner-Miller." 

I don't know her situation and why and when she uses her family hyphen maiden name, or why in the AP she uses only her maiden name. But I am aware of a feminist movement to keep Maiden Hyphenated Husband  names after marriage. Here is a recent article on that. So, we have a frum woman Lawyer and maiden-named woman as the Tznius Champions.

Are we allowed to be skeptical?
