What was it someone said to him? "your fate lies in yourself, not in your name."
In fact, Turin's attempts to escape fate by constant name changes actually helped to ruin him. If he had kept his true name his mother and sister might have been aware of his whereabouts and the brother/sister marriage not come about.
Btw, slightly off topic but what about Turin's feelings towards Finduilas? I always interpreted them as friendship rather than love. She loved him, but I don't think he loved any woman until Nienor.
