MusicJunkie82 (User) Fresh Boarder Posts: 1   Adult name change By MusicJunkie82 3 Years, 9 Months Ago I'm on the tail end of a divorce and considering changing my whole name instead of just my last name. I've hated my first and middle names since I can remember, but I wonder if people will accept the change 26 years after I was given my birth name. Does the change seem corny or legitimate? I was thinking about Vanessa Rose. Any thoughts?

He also shortened our last name. It hurt my in laws but after 15 years they are ok with it. Do what is in your heart.

It could cause some hard feelings. Just a thought. Please Join our community to post your questions or answers | Report to moderator   Logged
