My name changed - Off the record
People generally do not change the birth name after they are grown up. A few change their name of course..
In past generation , there had been a custom for female to change the initial to husband's name from the father's...This had no problem while using in non official documents.
The problem comes in, if the female is a working professional as it involves changing name in all records and carrying necessary proof of changed name..
Few, in this generation also wish to change the initial after marriage. I am blessed that I did not undergo such complicated process of changing my initial (credit goes to my best half here, who suggested I keep the name as it is)
However, my full name has changed recently. It is not just initial change. Well, change is only off the record..
I am being called and addressed as "Dhanesh amma...". Yes . I am mother of Dhanesh and I am called referring his name by neighbours and his play school teachers. I doubt if they knew my birth name.
I have started this blog today with my new name and i'll be addressed as Dhanesh amma where ever i go........
