Changing one's legal name... (32)

ITT we can discuss amongst other things:

  • Reasons for changing one's name
  • How to (for the ones who do not know)
  • Good names to pick

I'm going to change my name due to social reasons (having a foreign name when that's by far the most foreign thing about oneself isn't good, especially when it comes to searching for a job). It's not going to be, but is as plain as Jeffrey Smith.
Now, the first name I've decided on I've grown rather fond of, but the "Smith"/"Doe" type name I'm not so sure about.

I want to have a surname that isn't exotic, and preferably tied to the country I've grown up in and lived all my life (as well the only country I'm a citizen of and feel at home in). Yet, at the same time I'm worried that a too plain last name will make it easier for people to forget my name, and me in the process. My CV and merits may be worth remembering, but adding a too generic name to it might make it too foggy...

So, what I'd like to know, is if you think that my worries regarding the name I might pick are too far-fetched...

Dull but common reason: a change of surname to commemorate marriage.

Wow. That's worse than the lastnames Tamarra, Watt and Hu... And a bit like the japanese band "I've", only worse.
I've contemplated changing my last name to Anon, instead. Not too sure about it, though...

Elon Musk announced the birth of the baby boy in a post on Twitter, revealing his son was called "X Æ A-12 Musk".

Why does Musk try so hard to be hip and relevant with the mainstream?

Because idiots like 22 eat it all up.

It's easy and cheap PR to appeal to the reddit crowd by doing oh so nerdy crap.

If there's any name that you would want to be renamed to.. choose one that's sort of generic, and isn't easily found online.

If you're going to change your name, you should change it to something normal, like Robert. Don't change your name to something stupid like Niggerman, unless you're planning on killing yourself. Then change your name to something stupid so the news people will have to say it
