willow was intentionally named from where you were in your life, who you thought he was. it’s okay for things to have changed since then, it’s still beautiful that you put in that thought🤎

I changed my son’s name when he was 4 bc his dad wasn’t involved. I also changed his middle name. If you wanna talk, I’m open ❤️

My mom changed my last name after divorce when I was 2. I wish she let me decide when I was old enough

offering a different perspective, change the spelling of it to Dru or Drue so there's a little bit of separation. you could even change it to Drusilla so "Willow Drew/Dru/Drue" could still be used as a quick shout and her name doesn't change in that regard. Willow Drusilla still sounds lovely.

It’s actually not hard at all. You file to change their names and the courts change them. It’s very easy. Middle names, last names, any names.

I changed my kids last names and mine for free because we’re low income! I’m still married but I went back to my maiden and my kids are hyphenated. It’s a super easy process if you Decide to do it.

Personally I’d leave it to the kids to decide as they get older.

I don't think you have to rush this decision. I think its okay to give it time, they know their names...they dont know the "story" & its okay to explain to them later WHY they have those names, why you decided to / or not to change it. etc.

My kids last names are being changed. They will not have that monsters last name. They are 11 and 18. They are completely ok with the name change

Jazmin Davis :
Me personally I would change the last names but drew can become her own name! It doesn’t have to be her dad’s name given to her! Willow has such a beautiful and bright soul just like drew barrymore! Start mentally tying her middle name to better people and it will eventually just be hers! I’m so sorry you have to go through this. Anyone who actually cares about y’all knows that you will make the choice that makes the most sense for y’all!

If you decide you want to change her middle name - let her pick. That might make it a positive thing? Not that it needs to be changed but if it starts to get hard for you

Maybe change the way you spelled Drew? It’s so cute but I’d want it changed if it were me. I can’t imagine having to make this decision. Definitely change the last names!

Instead of changing the middle name just change the spelling so it’s not just after him so instead of Drew it could be Drue

You can change any portion of their names, IF you choose to. Even Willows middle name, even if you’d like to just change the middle name. Support always, mama. 🫶

Her Name is who she is it doesn’t have to be about who he is 🫶🏻 if you feel like you want to change her middle name fair enough but try not to put to much pressure on yourself over it , Last names are a much easier fix
