    Can’t they just, adopt the correct version of their name?

    I have a friend with a very arcaic name and most people don’t know what we call him is not his real name.

      People don’t realize that this has always been the case. I learned my wife’s grandpa’s real name at his funeral.

        My grandpa had the middle name Adolph, named after his father’s first name. They both changed their names to Allen in America. 😂 And no, they weren’t fond of Nazis.
