Changing names?

I do agree that the name she has been identified with and given to her by her birth family should be kept as part of her name. Though she may not like or want it NOW, she may feel differently later. AND, if she decided, as an adult, she could always change it further later. With each of my kids (adopted last Tuesday!), we kept the name they were called as one of their names. They have all decided to go by a nick name or the adopted part of their names.
