i am not in contact with my father's side of the family. he was not abusive but i never felt comfortable with him nor them, and they often criticized me.
It is not wanting attention... I had questions about my birth family... My adopted mom is a narcissist with Borderline personality disorder and has cut me out of my 93 year old adopted father's life.... He buried his daughter from his first marriage as she passed away from cancer... I am getting pretty upset with people assuming what I am trying to explain and I needed to find out why I was given up... If you were adopted, You would want to know as an adult...
I'd totally change my name to Mack if it was more practical. But that's what everyone important has been calling since 3rd grade so it's already kinda changed
lots of people who moved from my country to USA started giving their children english names and i am like why lol USA is a melting pot and English is not the country's language by law
Your name is a huge part of your identity and it's not something you had a choice in as an infant. I don't have any issue with people changing their names to whatever the heck they want
