[quote=Anonymous]I don't think it's a big deal. I honestly don't understand the uproar from so many posters. I also don't buy that OP's embarrassment is somehow a flaw on her part. Please. Pretending these things "shouldn't" matter doesn't mean they "don't" matter -- life just isn't that easy. OP, does she even know how to write her name yet? She doesn't even need to know you've changed her name, assuming the adoption goes through soon. You can phase her current name out, or keep her current name as a middle name and transition to the new first name gradually. It is not unusual at all for people to change their child's name when they're adopted, and you'll even get a new birth certificate with your name and her new name on it. How crazy is that. Good luck with the adoption, OP. Thanks for being a foster parent.[/quote]
