That one bugs me, surely it should be two grand dads as the hyphenated name usually is a mix of the mother's maiden name and the father's surname.
No, usually, as in my case, it is a combination of my biological (deceased) father and my adoptive father's surnames. your suggestion is usually the exception to the rule.
