Quoting Inankur:

Dears,
i really hope my colleagues from work made a stupid joke! maybe you know for sure ...
when becoming a turkish citizen someone NEEDS TO CHANGE HIS NAME? meaning to take turkish name?
not to be confusions: Andreea Inankur ... tamammm, Inankur i got married, took my husbands family name ...
I understood i need to change Andreea into turkish name, which WONT HAPPEN!!!
I prefer not taking the citizenship than changing my name ... its absurd!
Thanks!
ANDREEA Inankur for ever!


Having a turkish name is not the only thing:
you have to pass turkishness test in which you have to sing national anthem without a single mistake, depending on who interviews you, -if an islamist- you may be asked to recite three versus in arabic, -if it is a nationalist- you may be asked to sing 'cirpinirdi karadeniz'



This even made me laugh... lol But it wouldn't surprise me either if it was a law..
