About my Name Changes

   In short; I had legally changed my name from Sharon Buck (My married name) to my pen name, Namatari Neachi, in the mid 1990s, out of respect for my father, because he was so uncomfortable with my looking at and healing childhood things, that I felt he'd also have difficulty with my publicly sharing my writings about it.
   I later felt uncomfortable with the pen name I'd chosen and had hoped that another name change would help the targeting to stop. So, in 2007 I legally changed my name to Sharon Rose Poet. The Poet part came from my mother who used to call me the little poet when I was a child. The Rose part came from a poem my mother wrote for me, which was called, "Rose for Sharon". After I realized the scope of the targeting against my whole family and other loved ones, I decided to publicly share all of my names, so that my loved ones would be helped, which felt more important to me than any other issues. My maiden name is still Sharon Y. LaBree. . .always has been and always will be. Irregardless of what I am called I am still who I am.
