Bobbi Kristina Ready for a Name Change

With the death of Whitney Houston, daughter Bobbi Kristina Brown is determined to put the past behind her and get a fresh start. And part of the healing process will include a shocking name change, according to TMZ. Although it may sound cruel, the troubled 19-year-old has wanted to disassociate herself from father Bobby Brown for some time now. However, sources say Whitney was opposed to the notion. Now that the "I Will Always Love You" singer is no longer alive, Bobbi Kristina is prepared to take her late mom's name and make the transition to Kristina Houston. Insiders tell TMZ that the heiress to Whitney's $20 million fortune is sober and in a "better place," which means the name change is likely imminent. With every little step she takes, Bobbi Kristina's newfound millions get a little further away from her freeloading father, who is supposedly working overtime to weasel his way back into her life.
