Quote:Geez, have you forgiven your parents for that first name yet?
hahahah! the funniest bit is that I don't even know why I am called that! my parents have never been there. However they made up for the horrible first name by giving me a pretty awesome middle one that I can use instead.
Quote:I don't think there are any legal requirements in changing your first name, you just do it. Louise is OK.that depends if you actually want to be known by it in every sense. I have considered dropping the first name and using my middle one for good, but I am a bit lazy with the forms.
Quote:I'm assuming that you are using a screen reader for this. How well does it work with sites like this forum? My mother used to use jaws.The only place I had real trouble was in the actual sign-up stage. you guys only have a visual verification, which is of course useless if you have only a very small amount of vision, however it simply meant that I called up my friend in the USA and made him go on team viewer and do it for me.
most sites have audio verifications now so the internet is even more accessible.
and for those who are interested:

Benedict by Griffschen
I wrote this song for a conservative catholic that I met earlier this year at my colege. He literally changed his name to Benedict because he became a very very serious catholic. He once told me that 'nothing in the bible has been proven to be untrue' and that 'the inquisition was a very good thing for everyone concerned'.
this was my response to him.

Desperate People by Griffschen
This is a song about all the forgotten people who we hear nothing about. A song dedicated to anyone who has prayed hoping for an answer or knowing that one would never come. We all pray, even I do, the difference is is that I know that only I can answer my prayers.
there are more there, but this should get you all started
oh dear, someone might want to teach me how to put links here....
