But it would make sense for him to change the family name to 'Smith' I always thought he should change it to Throckmorton. Throckmorton J. Gildersleeve.

I don't think to them it mattered as long as they were here they could call them whatever they wanted to.
It is better to beg for forgivness than ask for permission.

I don't think to them it mattered as long as they were here they could call them whatever they wanted to. Sure, but what about "today's" generation, for example? If your name was Roth, but it used to be Rothstein, would you change it back to your original family name?

If your name was Roth, but it used to be Rothstein, would you change it back to your original family name? i don't think the book directly said it, but I always thought that safety had something to do with Vito Andolini changing his last name. He was on the run....and a new "identity" in America was a safety precaution....not unlike Fabrizio.... We're never told just how far the reach of the mafia in Sicily is....but young teen vito andolini in sicily could surely become adult vito corleone in america a virtually undetectable "new person" People anglicizing their names...shortening them...dropping "ova" "oka"" stein" "berg" etc...is different than what went on with the character in the book/film.
