Changing my name.... - Page 3

At least you aren't changing your name to Richard Wad, Tyr.

I was gonna suggest "Queequeg".

Well any name has to be better than what most of your 'customers' call you on a daily basis.

Hey my friend threatened to name his first born "Root Beer Unit". Congrats on the new name, if it makes you feel good about yourself, then go right ahead.

Congrats Brother. I suppose I am one of the few that have already gone thru the process. I changed my name when I was 23 after using my nickname as common practice since I was 11 or 12.

It's a long and daunting process. I did it all myself, you can hire a lawyer for like $500 to do the legal legwork but it's really not that bad. A few court appearances, a few notices in the local paper and a few forms to fill out. The worst is when it's all done and you need to apply for a new BC, SS card and change all your credit card info, etc. Believe it or not, the one that gave me the most trouble was my energy company!

Do yourself a favor and when it's all said and done, before you leave the court with the approval, get about ten motorized copies of the last form signed by the judge...you'll need it for EVERYTHING!

You need a hand with anything, just let me know.

It's a little known fact, but prior to Dustin changing his name, there were exactly 95 people named Týr in the entire country. Now, with Dustin joining the group, we have, yep, you guessed it:

I didn't even click it and I know just what it is, Bill! Well played, Sir!

You know...Katie and I have been thinking about names for our children. Since our last name is Smith (my first name being David) we want to give our children a name that is unique and not often used. Not anything crazy like you said, but just something that isn't common. Leaders in the clubhouse currently are Graham, Hunter, Dominic (haven't got any girls names yet lol) I applaud you for taking this step. Sounds like you really put some thought into it. How did you break it to your mom?

MedicCook · 07-27-2010, 07:25 PM

Congrats on the name change Týr.
