1st...Seek out an attorney for your legal advice on this.  Changing a childs name isn't complicated but you want to get the right legal advice.  This is something that you can do as an initial consultation at No Charge by most attorneys everywhere.\n\nIf the name change is a result of an unplanned pregnancy where only the mother is listed on the birth certificate it will be very simple for the attorney to petition the courts and get a court order on file for the name change.\n\nIt does become complicated if the bio-father is listed.  Consent must be given by the bio-father for the name changes.\n\nSeek out an attorney PLEASE!!!

Your marriage license or certificate should show your married name, and that's the legal "proof" you'll need to get a new Social Security card. You'll need a new driver's license anyway, so just put the new name on the form; same thing with the new bank account. Congratulations!

Go to options, then general prefrences and you should be able to change it on there.  It has a field where you can change your outgoing name.

You probably have to go to the court house. You birth certificate has your mothers last name. So thats the name you need to give them. They will prob be able to find it that way. Not with the last name you have now. I'd go to the court house and ask them what you need. I would take in your drivers liscense for ID and your soc security card. They will prob ask for them. Good luck!

They usually give you a paper in the hospital for you to get notarized for the birth certificate.  Contact the hospital where your son was born

In some states you contact the county court house where you were born, but more and more states are starting to move birth records from the county level to a state level.\n\nWhile the state office names vary, Dept of Vital Records,, Dept of Birth records,  you should get a copy for 3 to 5 dollars a copy.\n\nAlll the online companies do is get it from these exact same places, and charge you a big amount for writing a letter to get it.

If your living in Great Britain then go to your local city hall or any half decent solicitor and tell them you want to change your name via 'deed poll'\nonce this is done you will get a new certificate that states you are this new person and that you will be registered as that person not the old one.\n\nIf you live elsewhere then I dont have a clue

You can fill out the paperwork to change your name yourself.  The filing fees differ in each jurisdiction but you can easily find that out by going to your county clerk's webpage.  That's also where you can print out or find out where you can get the packet of forms for changing your name (adding a middle name).

Both of the above answers are correct.\n\nThe process is fairly simple in most states. You go down to either the local county courthouse, or the county clerk's office. There will be a standard form to fill out, and you'll need to provide ID and probably a copy of your original birth certificate. The fees vary, but are usually under $100 and some states are as low as $25.\n\nSome states require you to speak to a judge who approves the change, but not all states do. Once your application is approved, you get an official notice of the change in a few weeks. After that, you need to update your drivers license, birth certificate, etc., all with the appropriate agencies.

If it is misspelled on your birth certificate, the only thing you can do is get your name changed by order of a court. Ask your local court about how to go about changing your name. If it is not misspelled on your birth certificate, bring it to the departments that issued the documents and ask to have them corrected.

petition the court for a name change. \n\nlook at your state's statutes, as I am sure that there is a statutory provision on the matter. Here's an example of the statute in NM (make sure you check your state): \n\n   \n \n Any resident of this state over the age of fourteen years may, upon petition to the district court of the district in which the petitioner resides and upon filing the notice required with proof of publication, if no sufficient cause is shown to the contrary, have his name changed or established by order of the court.  The parent or guardian of any resident of this state under the age of fourteen years may, upon petition to the district court of the district in which the petitioner resides and upon filing the notice required with proof of publication, if no sufficient cause is shown to the contrary, have the name of his child or ward changed or established by order of the court.  When residents under the age of fourteen years petition the district court for a name change, the required notice shall include notice to both legal parents. The order shall be entered at length upon the record of the court, and a copy of the order, duly certified, shall be filed in the office of the county clerk of the county in which the person resides.  The county clerk shall record the same in a record book to be kept by him for that purpose.    \n \nAlso, be aware that you must usually publish the request: \n\nBefore making application to the court for changing or establishing a name as provided in Section 40-8-1 NMSA 1978, the applicant shall cause a notice thereof, stating the nature of the application, the time and place, when and where the application will be made, to be published in the county where the application is to be made and where the applicant resides; the notice to be published at least once each week for two consecutive weeks in some newspaper printed in the county. If there is no newspaper published in the county where the applicant resides, then the notice shall be published in a newspaper printed in the county nearest to the residence of the person and having a circulation in the county where the person resides.
