There was a time when you were not even entitled to how your name was spelled or pronounced. I'm told the Chinese are much more flexible than the Western noun/pronoun possesion, and expect their names to change in each region, how it is said and spoken. I think we once did the same with very common names, like John... a John would expect to change his name in each country he traveled.
