I would never change my name back. First of all I was never given a first name. I would never change my last name either. While biologically I may have been that other last name, I was loved and raised by the name I was given. I do not see how changing your name would be a positive thing for an adoptee. I think it depends on the person and the circumstances surrounding their placement and how their adoption went. I love my bmom with all my heart, I adore my grandparents, but I would never change my name.
