Can you share with me how you adjusted her from her previous first name to her new name? I am interested in doing this and my foster daughter is almost 2 and they are in the process of termination of parental rights. I just don't know if she is too old plus I am receiving some reluctance/resistance from friends. Thanks for any advice/help!
