This is from PC3 on Twilight Lexicon (question is answered によって Stephanie Meyer)
Q: I understand that Rosalie likes to keep her own last name. But why would Jasper take Hale as a last name - and even further - why do they pretend to be actual brother and sister? Why don’t they just say they, too, were adopted individually?
A: About Jasper using the name Hale–it’s just for convenience. He and Rosalie look a lot alike. They actually look like fraternal twins–both the same color blond, both tall, him muscular and her statuesque (with the same pale skin, ゴールド eyes and flawless beauty, of course). The Cullens use many different subterfuges to try to keep people from looking too closely at them. Anything that seems to be a certain way–like Rosalie and Jasper seeming to be related–they embrace. They work within people’s expectations. People assume the two blonds are related, so they let that assumption stand. Plus, the もっと見る complicated a story is, the quicker someone gets bored trying to understand it, and gives up.
They don’t always use the same story. When it was just Carlisle and Edward, Edward pretended to be the young brother of Carlisle’s deceased wife. Then, after Esme, Edward was again Carlisle’s wife’s younger brother (only this time, the wife was alive). As the family got bigger, the explanations got もっと見る complex. Eventually, the Cullen’s ホーム came to look like a refuge for troubled teens. (Though the best-behaved troubled teens ever).
They could be Whitlocks, it wouldn’t make any difference to anyone accept Rosalie. Jasper doesn’t care what anyone calls him. But Rosalie clings to her human past with all ten fingers.
