Anne and Joseph are talking about an interesting question. Why do some people change their names? There can be many reasons. Hanna changed her name to Anne because she thought it would be easier for people to remember. On the other hand, Joseph is thinking about changing his name to an unusual one because he wants to be different.      People have a lot of   reasons for  changing their names.  Film stars, s ingers,  sportsmen and some other   famous people often change their names because they want the names that are not ordinary, or that have special sound.      Some people have another reason for changing their names. They have moved to a new country and want to use a name that is usual there. For example, Li Kaiming changed his name to Ken Lee when he moved  to  the United States. He uses the name Ken at school. But when staying with his family and Chinese friends, he uses Li Kaiming. For some people, using different names makes life easier in their new country.      In many countries, a woman changes her family names to her husband's  after she gets married.   But today, many women are keeping their own family names and not using their husbands'.
