Did the CHRIST ever give witness of His name?
That speaks of the traps many might fall in. In the USA, there is a complex system to prevent name changes or abandonment. If you have money or smarts, relatives might get pissed finding out they cant inherent your stuff so easily. In my experience, I was taught from a very young age the difference between reality and man-made reality that is: between true name and the "dba". Who would think strangers and relatives would turn violently against you simply for maintaining an arm's length from the PERSONAE? A racket is a racket and stinks of one too.
