When I was becoming an American citizen, my brothers and I were debating changing/adding to our names. Andrej wanted to take off the J and become Andre (wound up not filling the form out right, though. He isn't willing to pay $300 to have it done at this point); My dad wanted Igor to change his name into Christian (which is what dad meant to call him to begin with, but my mom insisted on a Serbian name). Igor refused; And I wanted to add a middle name to Marko (but I wasn't gonna change the K to a C, 'cause I prefer this spelling). I couldn't decide on one though. "Jonathan" was the closest I ever came to deciding. I thought it was original, until I met a guy named Jonathan.
