Not quite sure what you intend to do, but the names on the UA and HH accounts have to match exactly.
The best way for both of you to have access to the miles is to sign up for two HHonors accounts, one in your name, one in your wife's.
After your wife transfers her miles into her HH account, you can then combine yours and hers, a convenient feature HHonors offers to spouses.
HHonors grants 500 points per profile update, up to twice per quarter. If you do this after signing up, by the time the UA points are in you could wait until 1/1/03 for another round of profile updates before combining accounts, and end up with 14,000 points in the combined account in two months.
I would recommend scouring the Hilton forum for more points earning ideas. HH has many promotions.
