... I wont say that my parents would't care, then, but I can say that if my kids decide to change their names when they're older I would not be offended. I would not feel like they were disrespecting me, and I definitely wouldn't think it was one of the most disrespectful things they could do! I can think of many, many worse.
It's possibly a culture thing, I don't know. But I wanted to say so, because you said so strongly you wouldn't believe it if he said his parents didn't care. Maybe his parents don't care. Because as a parent, I wouldn't.
