Yes I would change it

I know a number of people with last name Bush who changed it before his 2nd term was out... in fact they were advised to do so by their travel agents, in order to travel outside the US safely. I'm sure the few with the last name Obama will want to do the same...even to travel INSIDE the US ;)

With a name like Hitler, you would probably be a step closer to the White House.

If everyone changed their names due to negative connotations a lot of families histories would disappear.

reply
dragonf... to Kat ♪ 2012/05/16 13:45:06

under that logic they would disappear due to women changing their last name upon marriage.

Not really and not all females change their names when they get married. Some that do change their names back after divorces.

One man's deeds shouldn't dictate (No pun intended) whether my last name is worthy of having or not.

I actually worked with a guy who's son had a friend named Hitler. We shared an office and when he would be on the phone with his son and say, "so tell me Jim, just how are the Hitler's?" I couldn't keep my composure. My friend and I both agreed we would have changed our name.

Why should I have to change

reply
dragonf... to umapath... 2012/05/16 13:47:18

the question is whether you would. people don't have to "have to" do something in order to do it.. they could just "want to." unless they're totally lazy and only do what they "have to" ... then I could see taking the question that way...

I think that name needs to be retired. Carries too much infamy.

Kids can be cruel, maybe it's different in the US but I know what kids here would tease classmate had that name.

Life can be cruel, doesn't mean you should give up your name. That's my opinion, at least. I can't fathom giving up my last name because of what someone else did.

That's true but people still equate the name with evil, I plan to have kids someday and I wouldn't make them go through the teasing
