Greetings! Grace and peace be upon you.

First post. Just trying to comprehend the use of True Name (John Henry) as compared to Legal Name (John Henry Doe).

1. Why is True Name used?
2. Where did the concept come from"
3. What needs to be done (paperwork, etc) to establish its use as opposed to Legal Name? Any negative experience?
4. I use an Affidavit of Identification (self created and notarized photo ID), that I use as ID. I even used it while redeeming Lawful Money at a bank (as one of the two IDs). It has my Legal Name. Should I use True Name instead?

Thanks for your experiences in using the True Name. It is a new concept to me and I need more info on using it and defending it.
