[quote=Anonymous]I didn't read the whole thread, but just wanted to say that it's very, very common for immigrant families to change the names of their bio children (even older ones) when they move to the U.S. Lots of my friends families have done this. In fact, my husband's name was Americanised when he came at age 6. Some of the kids resent it as adults, others don't. That's a complicated conversation. But, the bottom line is that this happens all the time in bio families and really has nothing to do with adoption. [/quote]
