Changing one's surname

imperfect_cupcake · 03-21-2014, 12:40 PM

I changed my last name though not legally. since I write and am on line for other things, I go by a different last name. Only my old close friends, work, legal things and my family know my legal name. I actually like it this way. My face book and my pen name are the same, but my legal name stays off the internet.

I chose a name according to my birth mother's heritage and the meaning of the name.
It's welsh Gaelic for "of the sea"
I love the sea. And it sounds good. Also, its rather common so if people google me to stalk me, they are rather shit out of luck LOL.
