Top 12 Questions on Using a Balanced Name
5) Would it be a slap in my parents’ face to change my name?
Parents want the best for you. At first they may not realize that the balanced name is the best for you. However, it has been our experience that parents will appreciate the balanced name if you patiently persevere in consistently using your new name. One testimonial expressed the following, “When I changed my name, even though my parents accepted the change grudgingly at first, they became much more intrigued as they saw me change for the better over time.” Most people are emotionally tied to their names. This is evident in the many thoughts that one gets when considering a balanced name change. If we have to overcome these emotional concerns, imagine how many concerns those who care about us have, but lack the evidence of a Name Report! Be patient. Assure them that a name change does not have to affect your relationship with them. If you can assure them that the balanced name will help you lead a happier and more fulfilled life, it is hard to imagine a parent that would not at least try to accept it.
No doubt there are some parents who will not see any point of view other than their own. At this point, you have to make a choice and do what is best for you.
