One of the reasons I use it - philosophy. What makes 'Brian' any more
a real name than 'MegaZone'? They are just words, each is a name to
describe an object. In this case an individual human being. I've know
people with names like 'Morning Star' - and lets not forget Dweezel.
Is MegaZone any less of a name that those?
Or is it the Eurocentric paradigm that is pervasive that makes names that
don't fit the good old Anglo-Saxon mould sound weird, or makes them unreal?
I've had a lot of experience debating this...
In the end - if my mother can use it, I think everyone else can. I've
been waffling on the legal change for some time now, maybe I should just
go do it.
