Reply to comment by AlgaeFew8512 in TIFU by changing my name by [deleted]

What someone's called in private isn't generally a legal question. Whether or not OP is ok with being called the old name in private probably has nothing to do with whether they went through a legal process to change name.

No, but legally changing ones name shows an extra personal commitment than simply using a pseudonym for professional reasons

That's what I meant. If it's legal then I find it pretty insulting to not use the new name. If it's just a stage name it seems kind of fair for the gf to still use the real name privately
