[quote=Anonymous]I think you have set up the right choice-- whatever you choose, your DS should not be odd man out here. So if he keeps his biological father's name, you should keep that name, too, or revert to your own given name. If you decide to change his name, could you use his given last name as his middle name? So instead of Larlo John Smith, he becomes Larlo Smith Henderson? Or you and he could hyphenate and both be Smith- Hendersons? TBH, though, I think he is too young to make this decision, as he could have very strong regrets about it later. I think I'd be inclined to keep his (and your) last names as they are, and if he wants to change it down the road, then you both could do it then. [/quote]
