Q. My partner (see question above) also had a dream were his mother told him that his true name is not just Moshe as he has maintained all his life, until the dream and as is written in his Kesuva. She revealed to him in that dream, that he was also given after his departed Zaide the name Lemish. He started using both names for a year, but since his friends made fun of him. he decided to avoid the added name and as he always did, just be called Moshe. His question is since he did adopt that name for a year, and was so called to the Torah, does he have to keep it and also does he have to change his Kesuva?
A. Horav Shlomo Miller's Shlit'a opinion is that he does not have to keep the new name, and should revert to the old single name as written in his Kesuva.
Rabbi A. Bartfeld as advised by Horav Shlomo Miller and Horav Aharon Miller Shlit'a
