[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What would be better for the child, should the adoptive parents keep his name Huxley or offer him a new name to protect his privacy / identity? He is all over the internet, people where he lives now will see an Asian nonverbal child with the name Huxley and know immediately who he is... I know he is not a dog to be named whatever but I do wonder what is in his long term interest. Anyone have ideas about that? [/quote]

The name is the least of the issues.  Most families who adopt change their kids names.  I only know of a few families who either kept the first/middle name given or did a joint name with the birth parents if that was an option, which is what we did.[/quote]

He was a beautiful Chinese name. I don't recall it, but why now use that name?[/quote]

Why not?  It reflects his culture, heritage and if his birth mom gave it to him, its the only thing left he has.  My child has a name from their culture.  Why wouldn't you?[/quote]

We're saying the same thing I just have too many typos. Yes, use his given Chinese name, not Huxley. [/quote]
