I’ve always been fascinated by how people of generations have gotten their names, it’s usually a good story if you can trace it back enough.. I always found it uncomfortable how in the US (more so than other places) you could just change your name with a fee and a piece of paper.

If my nickname was a surname, we probably wouldn’t be allowed a passport
