Questions on new H4

I am currently working on H1B valid till 2009. I am getting married in December and planning on bringing her on H4. My H1B is already stamped.

Questions:

1. Should her passport have my name on it as her husband?

2. Her current passport has her father's name as last name. Should I change her last name to my name (with regard to H4 visa)? Is it necessary? i have booked the visa appointment using her father's last name. i am not sure if changing her name now will cause any problems.

3. Has anyone gone for H4 stamping in Chennai recently? What sort of documents and questions do they ask?

Thanks!!!
