Name change Hello! I 19M have had a stutter ever since I could talk pretty much. I’m moving to another state soon, and seeing how my name starts with L and L’s are hard, I was thinking about going by my middle name after I move since I won’t have to deal with the hassle of explaining to everyone at home. My middle name I’d go by is Jamie if that makes any difference. Wanted to get some thoughts on this?
