That is how I would do it as well, if I could guess at the surname.

The scenario I used though was a wife where the surname was unknown but
where there was a known sibling whose surname was also unknown. In order
to link the two siblings there MUST be a set of parents so in this case
the parents were both unknown (or non-existent in the database as a
distinctive RIN). There is a marriage created with an MRIN.
