    I'm going to hazard a guess and say maybe he deserves it?

    Well, children generally aren't mature enough to make up a name that is sensible. A five year old could call himself many many silly names, some of which are explicit (a very rare chance however...)

    Uuuh i get what your saying, my name is sheldon. and after 17 years or 21 in your country you would of gotten so use to your name by that time, why change it.

    So say now you actualy change your name from sheldon to Jackwang, people wont call you by that name! walking down a street someone calls sheldon! will you go up to them and say-- NO my name now is jackwang! its a stupid concept! ppl will think your an idiot!

    the only reason i see for people to get a name change is, if they are no longer male/female, sexchange lol
    or security reasons.

    other then that, no-

    If I didn't get my current name, I'd probably have named myself something incredibly rude and immature.

    That would be part of my opinion here.

    But isn't it rude to change your name? I mean, your parents choose it for you because you couldn't think at that moment and they want to take care for you, made presents and stuff with your name on ... so all that work would be wasted. Okay, when you get a silly dumb name which is more an insult then a name, then I understand.... but just rename because you like another name more is proof to me off no respect to your parents.
