    Default Do Legal Name Changes Always Appear on Background Checks for Employment

    My question involves a background check in the State of: Tn.
    I'm Cuban and I was adopted by an American family but I still have my spanish accent and speak better spanish than english. They changed my name when I was adopted and when I turned 18(now 22) I changed it back because I felt that my name didn't fit who I was. Will that appear on every background an employer does for me?Will that look bad for me? Having an American name and changing it for a spanish one. It has never came up in an interview before but it still bothers me.

    Thankies

    No background check should go earlier than age 18 unless you're applying for a government security clearance, and even then, this wouldn't reflect negatively on you in any way I could think of.

    Name changes are rarely an event other than sometimes you're asked about them so that they can rerun the background checks under the former names.
