She explained that "He's not Don, he never will be Don, and it made me want to start crying every time a random stranger would say, 'Oh he's so cute, what's his name?'" The state made an error in changing his name, however, keeping the "III".<ref>{{cite web|url=http://asiacarrera.com/bulletin.html|title=Asia Carrera Bulletin|accessdate=2007-10-27|author=Asia Carrera|date=May 13, 2007|publisher=asiacarrera.com

==Commentary on the Susan Russell pornography case==
In 2006, Carrera was asked for commentary by ''The Spectrum'', a [[St. George, Utah]]-area newspaper, on the local case of Susan Russell, who was charged with 15 counts of third-degree [[felony]] distribution of pornographic material. Russell allegedly sold pornographic materials and [[sex toy]]s from a back room in her Earrings and More store, potentially violating the "community standards" of the [[Mormon]]-dominated town per the [[Supreme Court of the United States|Supreme Court]] case ''[[Miller v. California]]''. Carrera opined:
:"I deliberately moved to St. George with my husband so we could raise our kids in a conservative atmosphere, in a low-crime, family friendly state. I do appreciate that the laws are there, and will make it harder for my kids to get into trouble when they get older."
However, she also said,
:"Do I have a problem with porn being sold here? No, not per se. I have no problem with porn at all. Trust me, they don't exploit women, and watching porn has never been scientifically shown to lead to any increase in crime rates, be it rape, [[pedophilia]], or any other [[sex crime|sexual crimes]]."
Nevertheless, she reiterated that the community's conservatism was the reason she moved there, and that she had no plans to challenge it.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://thespectrum.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20061221/NEWS01/612210311|title=Pornography case puts privacy rights at odds with set public standards|accessdate=2007-01-20}}{{Dead link|date=January 2013}}</ref>
