Change the spelling of my surname?

[Whitlandcarm]

Hi, I have a Welsh surname and speak Welsh.
Would AIBU to change the spelling of my surname to the Welsh way of spelling? In a way I suppose I would be reverting an anglicisation.

That is to say; the anglicised spelling of the surname would be Lloyd but originally it would be Llwyd. Or, Tudor to Tudur, Hughes to Huws, Rees to Rhys, Griffiths to Gruffydd.

I know this may cause some stirring within some family members. But then again, it's as much my surname as it is theirs? They don't need to follow suit.

Sure! Why the hell not!

Why do you need implied permission to do what you like with your own name?

I suppose I'm just scared of getting judged by peopel

It's your name.

How far back in the family tree to the original spelling?

I agree, why not?

I'm not a fan of nationalism but there's nothing wrong in having pride in your roots and wanting your name to be spelled properly . I say go for for it.

It's your name, do what makes you happy... but, as some who has recently changed from an commmon / easy to spell name, to a less intuitively spelt name it's a pain in the butt.
