Bobbi Kristina Brown is not adopting Whitney Houston’s last name, says Bobby Brown

Bobby Brown has dismissed rumors that his daughter, Bobbi Kristina, is planning to adopt her late mother Whitney Houston’s last name in a bid to distance herself from her father.

Bobbi Kristina Brown, 19, is currently throwing herself into acting and singing to take her mind off the tragic death of her mother on February 11.

Bobbi Kristina Brown was rumored to be planning a name change to launch her career in the spotlight.

However, Bobby Brown is adamant his daughter will not change her name.

“She can’t change her last name, her name is her name. She’ll forever be known as Bobbi Kristina Brown. There’s no changing that, there’s no taking that back,” contactmusic.com quoted Bobby Brown as saying.
