I'm trying to think about this from an adoptive parent's POV... unless the child is already school age and is against having their name changed, it seems like it wouldn't cause major problems. Don't many Native American tribes rename their children as they grow, to match their personalities/lives?
I placed a baby for adoption 6 years ago and I found out what the adoptive parents wanted him named beforehand. When the lady from the state came in needing the name, I named him what they wanted. Of course that wouldn't be possible in a closed adoption.
