Regulations do require airlines to check bags to the person they belong to.

Checking them all under one name complicates things if one of the bags gets lost. The person it belongs to should be making the claim. If you have checked the bag, and the lost bag belongs to someone else, it just complicates matters.

Everyone should check their own bags under their own name if they are separate families.
