<human>: Can you give me the gist of the text in a nutshell?

I'm a 18 year old Canadian from Taiwanese/Chinese descendent living in Quebec. I dislike the name that was given by me by birth as I think it is a name to assimilate myself in a western society.

The name I was given by birth was Victor, followed by your typical Chinese generic surname. The name is very common and sometimes when someone call Victor "insert your Asian family name here", I assume that it's me. The other issue with the name is that is a typical westerner name, which I do not identify myself with.

I identify myself as an Asian, and for my entire life I've lived with Japanese and Chinese people, so I feel like I belong to their group and I'd like to have a more Chinese/Japanese oriented name. I feel like I'm being assimilated to the west and losing my identity and my origin.

My parents are strongly against it (I know I can do it by myself without their permission, but I want their consent first so we won't have conflicts regarding this matter later), saying that is a huge inconvenience having to change all the papers and sorts even after I told them that I'd handle all the matters by myself.
They are also not really Chinese cultured, as I was never taught Chinese as mother tongue, I had to learn by myself how to use chopsticks, are trying to convert me to Christianity saying that me being non-religious/Buddhist is a sin and I'm supposed to go to hell for this. They are your totally assimilated conservative Asian parents.

I'd like to ask Reddit what should I do to convince them to accept my name change as I really like to practice and follow my parent's country culture.
<bot>: I want my parent's consent to change my name to a Chinese/Japanese name as I identify myself as Asian and I hate my western name as I feel like I'm losing my culture and it is too generic.
