These are fine except the first station. There is a balance between placemaking and practicality, and this will be annoying to type out during delays, making signage for construction, and what else...
Also, another bout of inconsistency: There is a theme of stations have hyphenations that involve major universities. VCC-Clark. Production Way-University. Lafarge Lake-Douglas. Why wasn't SFU added to Surrey Central? Douglas at New West Station? KPU near Lansdowne?
Hyphenation in general is good when the names are short. Even buses now just sign "Brighouse station" because the name is too long

Does it really matter? No, it'll just be a secondary name like the Art Plaza that gets included in all the official documents that no one uses. Maybe one day Emily Carr will be cancelled and they'll have to rename the station.
