Although my father made the desicion when I was born that his surname didn't sound good with my name, so he changed it to the chinese pronounciation. I'm going to chaneg my surname back to his when I turn 21 but I'm already making little changes now. I don't think it's a minor thing. By changing my surname back to his, I feel like I'm actually connected to a family that I have heard so much about and has many people whom I respect even though I've never met them. It's like being accepted back to where you belong. I’m in the same thing as you are.
