Fyo had to agree that most of the students were right, but he had his own thoughts on the whole matter. Think out-of-the-box, yup, that was the way he'd been brought up.

He raised his hand, rather thoughtfully. "I believe one should use one's original name - the one on the birth certificate, that is," he began. "But I also think it might not be that bad an idea to use one's "new" name. I mean, ma'am, if names can have such a great effect on our personality, and we have a new name, wouldn't that somehow change our life? It's like.. If people keeping calling you 'soft,' you try to act that way, but if they've labelled you a bully and you like that, you're generally meaner in the future, just to keep up to that reputation. What I'm trying to say is that if you have a new name, couldn't you just use that for the calculations? Because in some ways, you have a new personality now - you just aren't who you once were: you have a new family, you're living with different people, maybe adopting lifestyle choices you might not have if your real parents were there. Wouldn't that make some sort of effect on the whole thing?"
