[Opinions] Re: When naming a child, how much do you worry about how the name will sound on a resume someday?

I do this. I put my mothers maiden name as my surname on job applications. When I have to fill out w2 paperwork they can see that it’s not my legal name, but I haven’t been questioned thus far. If they did I would simply explain that I plan to change my legal surname and prefer to be addressed that way. Just don’t make it seem like you’re trying to purposefully hide your identity.

That would be a huge relieve for me! I’ll contact the HR department and ask if this is a possibility to change my last name on my name tag, work mail etc.
I’d change my surname in a heartbeat, but it’s a huge pain to do so where I live. You need a psychologically report etc. And although he hurt me I still don’t want to hurt my father by changing my last name officially and him finding out in an emergency situation. (not yet)
