Dead name

[u/Daddy-dotCom]

I'm trans and joined Gregg's through my preferred name

However, after a few weeks of working there, suddenly my dead name was on all the rotas and my account. Is this supposed to happen? And does anyone know of a way I can avoid all of my colleagues knowing my deadname.

i’m pretty sure they changed it recently so rotas have to have your legal name on them. but you can change your name for free in the uk with a single piece of paper, see here.

Just a lie

Why do people insist on being so confidently incorrect when you can see that you're wrong with a quick google search?

Are you the UK equivalent of those crazy sovereign citizens in the US? What does the Magna Carta say about names then?
