New Kid is a story about the challenges of middle school life and Jordan’s continuously evolving identities. He grapples with questions like “Who am I?”, “Why am I me?”, “What is important to me?”, and “Who will I be?” Can you identify moments in the story where Jordan seems to be wrestling with his multiple identities? Jordan is many things and his identity is not static, despite the social pressures that make it feel that way. Our own identities are multiple and evolving. In a notebook, draw a “Cultural X-Ray” of yourself, in which you label the outside of your body with aspects of your culture that are evident to others, such as language, age, ethnicity, gender, and religion, and the inside with the values and beliefs that you hold in your heart.

Alright so I never actually read the book so please take this with a grain of salt. From what I have just read it seems that Gogol comes to accept his non-American side and appreciate his Indian-American identity. I'm not sure why he comes to terms with it, but apparently he does. In the ending he sits down and reads the book his dad gives him by Nikolai Gogol. So yes, I think he does accept his name. However I strongly encourage you to verify that if you have the book. I hope this helped :)
