They could be if his adoptive parents wanted to choose his names....a bit different if the child was three or four.

Have you looked to see if he has a tree on here?

I had a first cousin who was adopted when he was 9 months old.

I have often thought of trying to trace him.

This took place in London, I know nothing more.

I know he would have had his surname changed but would his
first names which were Michael Anthony have also been changed or do they have to stay the same.

Thanks for any help
