Chances are he'll end up switching it on his own initiative. I've seen this happen twice among girls that I work with. But it should be up to the kid, otherwise he'll feel like it was forced.

Is your brother going to actually adopt the child?

I'd only change the name if he adopted the son legally.

I'm more interested in the feelings/needs of the child than the feelings of adults.

I personally believe the boy should keep his biological fathers last name no matter what *NM*

Are they changing his name to Clark Kent? If so, I don't think the kid will have a problem. *NM*
