hi, new here, obsessed with names, i plan on posting here quite often, i had no idea this community existed! haha.

I HAVE A QUESTION. i don't know if anyone would happen to know, but i think it's related enough.

i was cursed enough to be named Jessica (no offense to other Jessica's, it's just 'not me'). the rest of my name is pretty awful, too. at the age of 12, i had decided that i want to be called Lorelei Black. i'm nearly 17 now, and i've been deadset on it. i'm still deciding on a middle name, i've been tossing around a few... but i'm positive i want to do this. almost everyone i know calls me Lorelei.

my question is, has anyone else done this here, and could they describe the process and fees, especially? i have a job and my parents have no objection to me doing it before i'm eighteen... i really want it done because i'm starting college in a month, and i want my named changed as early as i can as to not confuse everyone, and so i can have it on my degree (obviously it won't be done in a month, haha, but yeah).

so if anyone can help, that'd be awesome. :D

I don't have a suggestion, but I love the name Lorelie. She's my favorite Siren folktale.
