[MR] Heraldry Name Question

[Steven Chang]

Well, I've been using the name for a long long time, but I'm not too
attached to it. The only thing with my SCA name on it is my archery scores
in the East Kingdom and Atlantia that I'm sure could be changed.. I guess I
could change it to Maclachlan or something.
