This article attempts to highlight the legal, moral, and philosophical falsity of the idea that humans have a uniquely identifying legal name. To do this, we look at the status of names in different areas of law and point out that the legal consensus tends to be that there is no “correct legal name” for individuals (on the contrary, people often have many “legal” names). We argue that this common notion that each person has a unique and well-defined “legal” name is a kind of collective illusion that we all seem to share (which appears somewhere in the late twentieth century) but is not based on legal or social reality. To counter this harmful deception, we present a series of citable conclusions on the current state of the law and introduce a normative framework on how institutions and individuals should choose between the different legal names of individuals. In studying legal theory, feminist philosophy, and philosophy of language, we discuss the social function of names, arguing that names allow people to communicate important social information about themselves—which can include their gender, religion, and family relationships. Thus, we conclude with the argument that individuals and legal institutions have a normative responsibility to respect people`s preferred legal names, thereby enabling them to authentically represent these facets of their social identity.
