$100,000 For A Name Change ?

I was listening to the listeners talk about this today on the radio....


If you were offered $100,000 in return you had to legally change your full name, would you do it?


Im thinking "hell why not, it's not like my name got me anywhere where it stands". It's just a name right? It's in my thinking that it's not really what defines who you are as a person.

Honestly...I've been called "MANY" names and I still respond. LOL

Heck yes! $100,000 would mean we'd have to spend very little to buy our first home--if anything! Having my own home would mean more to me than having a certain legal name. Everyone would still know me as Angie or Angela, it would only be driver's license and official stuff that you'd really have to change.

Truth is - it depends on the name! Would you want to be known as "Coca-Cola" or some other brand name - "Nabisco" "Purina Dog Chow"????

I would do it for sure...no problem. Does someone else get to choose your name or do you get to do it?

Your new name would be changed through the entire courts system. Everything, every document you've had and will be having will be your new name. I am guessing if you want to choose "Nabisco" then by all means. But either way you change your name.
