How important is a name?

you don't have a nickname (or short form of your name)? most kids with non-native names seem to have one

just pick one

like steve

you're steve now

I know of a man in a very high position of power - in the United States, no less - with the middle name "Hussein".

The man makes the name, not the other way around.

If you're high value, they won't give a fuck about your name.

International students, most commonly Chinese, will use an English name when learning the language and continue using that name in America. It makes it easier for everyone. Ive had asian coworkers make up a new name on the spot and no one has a problem with using it. It's up to you, but it's not an uncommon thing to have an English name.

I've always thought that my name makes me sound like a 12 year old boy who wears DC skate shoes with long socks and a Monster Energy shirt.

I agree with the other guy, maybe use a nickname. It could even be beneficial to use your current name and then when women have a negative response, just demonstrate your rock solid frame and maybe even exaggerate it.

I'm experienced with this, I'm Arab, I changed my name to my username, Yes, that is my real name.

You will get alot more job application success and it sounds cool as fuck and people will tell you it does.

Get a nickname. It's not uncommon at all to not use your birth name.

Now, I feel this already gives me a disadvantage

Give yourself a cool nickname if it bothers you that much.

Pick a name, start using it, move on. Guaranteed this is not the problem. You've got some inner game issues to work through.

How do you expect people to give you respect when you won't even put some respect on your own name?
