How to deal with mail?
Is it legal in the US to get mail delivered to your chosen name when you haven't changed it legally?

Two eastern european chefs can have the same family name but different spelling of last names,
- Shashlikov, Shashlikovna
- Prostokvashino, Prostokvashiniy, Prostokvashinaya
- See also, the last names of people in the Zelensky family: Parents: Oleksandr Zelenskyy (father) Rymma Zelenska (mother)
Oh, that's really interesting and informative! Thanks for explaining it.
Ah I see. OP did specify that they're in the US so hopefully this is not a problem for them.
I'm in the US and it is very much a problem for me and another trans person even in a state that protects trans rights
Isn't it troublesome on paperwork to have differing last names in the same family? I even found an article saying that most Eastern European families use a singular last name when they come to the US, because differing last names really isn't compatible with the US legal system.
Idk, my sister and I have different legal last names, and my brother has my last name for a middle name.
That must be difficult. Do you think you'll eventually change your last name when you do your legal name change?
Yes
