I wish I had kept my daughter's last name, at least as a part of her name. Her name was Ji Miao Xin (Ji being the last name) and I named her MiaoXin Rain Roberts. My son's name is Tu Qi (no middle name, Tu is the last name). He's 8 and I'm just crazy enough to have actually asked him what he wants his official name to be. I'll find out what he says when we get there and honor his wishes. My only concern is that if he wants it to still just be Tu Qi that my daughter may grow up and be upset that she isn't still Ji Miao Xin. Not upset at HER of course, at myself. Being that I was adopted by my father's parents, my last name never changed. Unfortunately it wasn't something that even crossed my mind until it was too late. For the record though, their last names were given by the orphanage. We don't know the last names of their parents since they were both abandoned.
