I hate my name!

Advice for everyone; don't consider it professional:
Many countries have a legal process for name changing (or allow it to be changed freely after reaching XX years of age), though unfortunately it's often an involved process with restrictions to the effect that you can't change it if you simply don't like it — unfortunate again that this is the single biggest reason, but there you go.
You can otherwise go by a nickname that is entirely different to your legal one, so you'd only be using your legal name much anymore when signing official documents and the like... unless it's illegal to do so where you live; I wouldn't know but I wouldn't expect so.
Lastly, you can use your middle name(s), all are forenames in a legal context (again, don't take my word, your country's laws my differ).

Cassino, most of know that, but most of us are also too young or we got too attached to our names or people will be confused by us changing it.

Yeah, even though I haet Erik, I can't really change it. Wish they given me the opportunity to pick what I wanted to be called.
 
Ah, I like my first name. Blake, it's plain, but I don't mind it.
And my last name isn't too bad either, as I like Harley Quinn.
 
i would really love to change my name. it seems there are so many people with my name. i would probably change it to eurydice or annabelle. they are unique and i have never met anyone with those names, plus they are really pretty ^_^
 
Well, when I was six, I thought I was able to change my name beginning with a "K." :|

I have thought about wanting have my named changed a few times. I never liked my name too much, because its too common. D:

I joked around saying that I should change my name to "Micheal" because that's how people always spelled it, when it's actually spelled "Michael."
 
I don't hate my name, but I think that it's too overused and common. The only somewhat unique part of my name is the "e" in Omer, since most people who have the same name as me spell it as Omar. Having said that, my name is still pretty common. :[
 
I don't like my name. >: But it's too much hassle for me to change it right now, so I'll just live with it and rely on nicknames. C:
 
I don't mind the name Samantha; it's a pretty name. I just wish it wasn't so common, that's all. There's like a billion Sams out there. I hate hearing my name and turning my head, only to find out they were talking to a different Sam. >_<

Still wouldn't change it, though. It's what my parents decide to name me; I'd feel like I disrespected my parents by changing it.
 
i;ve never liked my birth certificate name. i go by the shortened version of it, or any other nickname people think of for me, but i get all weirded out when someone addresses me by my real name
 
Nope, I think my name is pretty unique lol xD I mean who else names their kid Nature? lol
 
I don't mind changing my name. It's perfectly fine with me.

Dude tbh. I Know why your saying that its common but its not that common. I only know 1 or 2 ppl but then again it may be common where you live.
Anyway I like my name but the problem is when teachers try to say it. I swear to god they must all be retarded. They cant read anything. I have been called 'Shed'. How do you turn Shoaib into shed he was reading his own writing. I have had another a lot worse. One teacher decides to pluralise (?) my name by adding an 's' on the end. Lol other than that its a pretty unique.
 
My name is Beau. T_T I kind of like it now, but I wanted to change it when I was in the first grade.
