      It takes years to change your name. It’s an absolutely huge pain to do in the us and I expect it’s getting harder now that Trump wants to surpress womens turnout by forcing birth certificates and other identifications match.

      For me it took hundreds of hours and I had to drive 7 hours one way to get an updated birth certificate because Oklahoma at the time took months to process a birth certificate update. You also have to go in front of a judge and they have to be in a good mood to approve it in the first place. I had a friend who had to contact a senator to get the change to go through because she drew a bad judge.

      Seriously it fucking sucks to do in the US. Can take hundreds of man hours.

        The only “easy” way is to change your when you get married

        still easier than having your name be Jeffrey Epstein imo, but I’ll admit its close

      Maybe I’m just too irony-poisoned by TrueAnon, but I’d keep it just to see the reactions

        whichever is easier, I mean you could just go by your middle name and 90% of the time it wouldn’t come up, and if it does its like the bank or shit like that
