I'm MS4, soon to apply to psychiatry residencies, and I've been considering this question for a very practical reason: my name is unmarketable. It's a name that is strongly associated with something else. Think "Forrest Gump" or "Robin Hood" or "Emerald Green". If you search my name, you find 30 pages of results about something other than me, even if you add my town and state. I don't know at this point whether I will end up working in private practice, inpatient, etc. I'm frankly considering changing/altering my name to something that will make it easier to find me: Emerald Greenstone, if you will. So I was just wondering, since I think it will be less of a hassle to change my name now, before I get my diploma and apply to residency: how important is it in psychiatry to be found using a Google search?
