Brian Miller happens to be one of THE most used names in the... world (maybe. Well ,at least in the states). Everywhere I go, like at the store where they retain all your information (for tracking, marketing, and covert govt. operations), the clerk will ask, "What is your name, please?" And I begrudgingly respond, "Brian Miller." "Oh!", she, or he will respond; "we have so many Brian Millers... what's your address?" For me, there is comfort in likeness and anonymity, and I respect my parents, who adopted me, and there decision to link my name to my fully Irish background. However, I have recently felt like a stage name might accelerate my career. Your Truly, "Lindsey Lohan" Try living with my name.
