    In my view, the name of the both should be mentioned. You can start like;

    Mr. Name of husband & Mrs. Name of wife followed by name of husband

        In cases like this, the last name is at the top of the stone, then the first names are under it one to a side You can even include the maiden name of your grandmother if you like as well as birth and death years. Depending of the size of the font or lettering you chose
