[quote=Anonymous]I am one of the previous posters and wanted to add that I don't feel attached to my own name at all. (I was not adopted.) I have a really common, boring name, I think one that conveys that my parents didn't have any originality or sophisticated thought. At school and later at work there were so many people with my name. I would love to have a different name even now, in middle age, if it wouldn't be colossally difficult logistically and if people wouldn't find it really strange that I would make a change. My name seems like something external to me that I need to remember like my phone number or street address. I don't regard it as part of my identity at all.[/quote]
