Is it normal to want to change your name?
Yep.Totally normal
Yes, it’s normal to want to change your name. You might want one that feels more like you, fits a new chapter, or is simply easier to live with.
People want to change their names for all kinds of reasons: they dislike how their current name sounds, want a name that better reflects their identity, or would rather not carry a family connection or past association. Sometimes it’s just a preference, and that’s enough.
You don’t have to prove your reason is serious enough. You can try using a different name socially before deciding whether to make it official; just keep in mind that a legal change can involve paperwork and updating records.
