I've always felt like the names we pick for ourselves ought to be more valid than the ones others choose for us. We should choose names for ourselves at different stages of life, and just tack them on in whatever order we like. You want something more fun than mummy and daddy gave you? Knock yourself out. Were your idiot parents drunk when they signed the papers? Well you can fix that at 12 if you like. We are who we choose to be and this the goddamn future.

I wouldn't trust the 12 years old me to decide a name for myself.

Yup. Looking back at my first email address, I'm glad I didn't change my name.

Sorry Trayden xXx PuSSy SlAyer 42069 is taken. You'll have to pick another name.

Honestly, I think it would be fun to choose new names at various stages of life, adding them on as we age. If our parents aren't going to take naming us seriously, why should we? So what if we have a dozen names we no longer use? It becomes a summary of who we were, how we came to be ourselves, a reminder of growing up.
