A middle school student in Delaware has been allowed to change his surname after enduring relentless bullying from his peers. Joshua Trump, who is not related to President Donald Trump, will now be known at school as Joshua Berto after dropping his mother’s surname for his father’s. The 11-year-old’s parents told ABC affiliate WPVI that the bullying of their son had been relentless and first started when Donald Trump began his presidential campaign. Talley Middle School in Wilmington agreed to immediately change Trump’s last name in their system in the hope that it will put an end to the ridicule. Five students have reportedly been disciplined by the school, which said it would put support mechanisms in place for Joshua to report any future bullying.
