The name my mother gave me caused me so much trouble and grief that I really don’t consider it to be my “real” name anymore. I just never bothered going to the trouble of legally changing it.
Leslie Lynch King, jr took his stepfather’s name when he was 23. He changed it to Gerald R. Ford, jr. Fun fact, he was admitted to Yale Law School the same year he became head coach of the Yale junior varsity football team.

My entire family assumed that my Grandma’s middle name was Eva. Apparently her birth certificate says Erva.
