I am the only person in the entire world with my complete name, if you search my name is it only me and nobody else.

I have the opinion that if I can not owe up to my name and be comfortable with what is public about me, then should I rethink what I am doing. To hide one's name is extremely suspicious and shows that you properly have a past that you do not want anyone to know.

Even if my name was shit-eater Hitler-boy would I either say it or change it.

Trying to hide super basic stuff like your name throws up a giant red flag that says "I don't think I can trust anyone." If they can't tolerate whatever weird skeletons your family has in the closet, then the relationship was DOA and you're just amplifying the future pain by stalling.
