If your adult aged child were to change his or her first name, would it upset you?

laughing When I was 10, I went through a phase where I hated everything, including my name, and I wanted a different one and I tried out a couple to see if I liked them better. So I know what that's like, but I've also come to appreciate having a one of a kind name, it's who I am...so looking at it now, I really don't know how a person could erase WHO they have been their whole lives, unless they hated it that much.

Well, my first name on my birth certificate was Bobbie. As a teenager I was adopted by my stepfather but decided to go back to my birth father's name when I came of age. So when I changed that, I changed the first name to Robert. Guess my stepfather may have been insulted, but I had imprinted on my original family.

I really think there should be a time from say age 18-25 when you can go to a courthouse and fill out a form changing your name to one you identify with instead of one you were given.

I don't think I would. Can't speak for her mother. Would your parents be insulted if you wanted to change yours?

Yes. The name I give my child would be something special that I picked out especially for them and gave to them, almost like a gift. If they decided that they disliked it so much that they would have it legally changed, it would sting.

I think it would upset me, I would want to know why but then I guess I would get over it. It might be a bit annoying to my child when I still call he/she by the original name though.

Parents need to know that they are the launch pad. Once the missile is in flight, it's trajectory is out of your control.

Not really. I gave them a name that I liked. It's not a guarantee that they would like it too.

I think I would be. I'd rather they just call themselves something else, rather than go through the legal channels of actually changing it.
