On the other hand . . . I'd say that 7 Brides was about as true to its source material as the TV version of Little House: that is to say, it has the same title, and some of the characters have the same names. In this case, I think this is a Good Thing. (I loathed the TV version of Little House, because I loved, and love, the books.)
I tried to change my name from my so unusual as to be weird nickname to Laura when I was a kid [my mom vetoed Susan which was her name - too confusing to have 2 in one house] because I loved those books so much. It didn't take in the end because people politely complied with my wishes but it just wasn't me.
Oddly enough, I never wanted to change to Bilbo or Taran, although Aragorn might have tempted me if it wasn't so... I guess I just couldn't get over the "gorn" part, even though I hadn't seen Star Trek yet at that point. ;)
