Would you change your birth name? If so, to what?

Have you ever considered changing your name by deed poll?

What would you change it to?

My birth name is Anthony, but almost everyone calls me Tony. I should probably just get it legally changed, but it would piss off my mum.

My parents were too lazy to look past the first name in the book and it must be genetic cos I'm too lazy to do the same

but Tony is just short for Anthony so why bother changing it officially since it's basically the same name?

now a completely different name would be interesting.

btw you can get an aka on your passport with proof of usage without having a deed poll done

I used to hate my name, I don't mind it so much any more though, kind of beginning to like it.
I suppose as I have grown older I just stopped worrying about that sort of thing.
Don't think I want another name.

Except maybe to something like Danger, or Viper.

Mr.

My surname's a first name so it would screw with people even more.

Something easier to spell.

People have very odd ways of spelling and pronouncing 'Eimear'.

Da Bounca · 23-07-2010 12:56am

Yurak Hunt then.

I'll be an easty

OutlawPete · 23-07-2010 12:56am

I'd like to have been called .. Zach, Tyler or Jayden.

Would have been a very successful entrepreneur with a name like that, it would have been inevitable.

I would then have bought the Adelphi Cinema when it went up for sale, gazumping Arrnots.

Would have had a threesome by now also.
