I think it's bad luck for the animal if you change its registered name, unless you keep it for life.
How many times have we seen post after post from people looking for 'Pookie' who was renamed from 'Suzy', and her new owner called her 'Gertrude', but someone else got her and we don't know her name, but PLEASE HELP US FIND HER!!!!
It might be much easier to track down an animal if each successive owner stopped changing its name. That's why I believe a registered name should never be changed, regardless of how vile someone thinks it might be.
I despise JJ's registered JC name, but I'd never change it. I'll never call him by it, so what does it matter?
You want the truth? You can't HANDLE the truth!
