Ms. OPQRST UVWXYZ, 36, is an art professor at a university in Bogota, Colombia. She spent years struggling with Colombia's national government in order to secure her legal name change. A Colombian National Registry official now explains that her name change had not be held up for any legitimate reason and would proceed immediately. So Ms. Cyborg is now Ms. OPQRST UVWXYZ. The Daily Telegraph quotes her:
“I started looking for a name that nobody had in Colombia, or the world, so I thought ABCDEFG HIJKLMN OPQRST UVWXYZ,” she explained.
“I've changed my name so people wouldn't know it's me.
“It's not because I was disturbed by it, but because I wanted to always bring an element of surprise.”
