In most states you can change you name if you are over eighteen years of age.  You can choose and use any name you wish as long as the purpose of the change in the name is not to defraud another such as child support, avoiding civil judgments, or collection actions by creditors.  Changing one's name is a routine procedure and in almost all instances you will not need to assistance of an attorney.\n\nThe procedure for changing your name will vary from state to state, but in general the procedure requires that you file a petition in the county where you reside. You will have to pay fee to file the petition.  Often there is a publication requirement, which means that you have to publish a notice in the local newspaper of record which states your existing name and that you have applied to change your existing name to a new name. \n\nThe petition will require that you provide information about yourself as well as listing all names you may have used during the past ten years, any pending legal actions and outstanding judgment, and criminal convictions.

Doesn't sound right.\nI think you have to go to the office of vital statistics and change your social security card to that of your married name you put on the ceritficate.\nCall the office of Vital Statistics in your area or local courthouse. Usually the middle name is dropped and maiden becomes your middle unless you prefer to keep your middle and drop your maiden.

The process is simple in most states. You go to the county clerk or the local county court, and get a form for name change. You usually do not need an attorney, though it's always a good idea if you have any legal questions.\n\nThe form, and what you need to do after filling it out, will vary by state, but it generally requires proof of identity (birth certificate, green card, etc.) and a small fee. Some states also require you to go before a judge and explain why you are changing your name. But it's not a very complicated process in most situations.

For it to be a legal name it would be on the original birth certificate. You can submit or call the capital of the state you were born in, and request it.

If it's like CA, you'll need to amend the original birth cert.  You fill out another form that says you are changing line (what ever) on the original document from A to B (no name, fathers name).\n\nYou may need to have a statement from the father, who knows.\n\nContact the county clerks office for more info.
