If a corporation would pay you to legally change your name to their product's name, would you? |

Let's say $100,000 to change your middle name to 'Mountain Dew'.
edit: Okay, $1,000,000 to change your name to 'Jello Pudding Pop'. Not just the middle name your whole name.

$100,000 wouldn't change my life but a name change would.

And I'll do it for $1 million. Then I could afford my health insurance for a few more years.

4. Not for 100K -- maybe for 250K. |
|
100,000 doesn't go far enough for the inconvenience. Why would they pay anyone to change a seldom used name anyway?
I'd change my first name to Mountain Dew for two million.

8. I'd totally change my name to "Long John Silver" or "Scott Tissues". |

Maybe not "K.Y. Jelly" though...

14. I'd be happy to take "Chevrolet." I like the sound of it. |
|
But "Verizon" doesn't have quite as nice a ring to it.

21. sure, b/c I'd still go by whatever name I wanted |
|
and use that "legal" name only in "legal" matters. But friends, family, and coworkers would know me by my real name. I'd say, "my name is Hot Pockets, but you can call me Lucy"
