I detest my given name. It is the sort of name that people shorten to one syllable rather than use the full five letter, TWO syllable word. WTF is with that? When I was twenty I was able to grab some time for college and I started using anagrams of my 5 letter name to make different combo's. I have been one of those now, for most of my life, although to my family I am always the hated one syllable name. I have always wanted to make that change legal, only it would not go over well with my remaining parent. As soon as she passes on, I will make it mine. There are some traditions in indian cultures that allow for name changes at different stages of life. I have taken that and used it for different stages of me. But would I ever change my screen name or get a number that signifies I belong to someone? So far, I never have. I doubt I ever will. I am me. I would still be the same person I created through time and experience. I would still be the same, quick witted, intuitive, intelligent, .. and KID, with whom I am most at home being. If I find someone who accepts that, he accepts me, with my chosen name. Because I worked hard to claim it and make myself live up to it. Now email names are a whole other deal! LOL I have had so many of those I lost count. Kyst
