I know what you mean
Then again I've never felt like my name fitted me. I went by a nick name for over 10 years, got to the point my wife and son knew me as nothing else and I considered changing it by deed poll, never did though.

yup, sums me up fairly well
just to clarify, I don't mean my wife and son never knew my real name, just never used it, I was introduced to her by nick name so it was all she ever called me.
