Question about changing name

Discussion by satrent07 · July 2011 · Home› Wedding Discussion Boards› Wedding Recap and Withdrawal

I just got married a couple of weeks ago and am now starting the process of changing my name. I've always gone by my middle name (thanks, Mom and Dad!), so when someone calls me by my first name there's always confusion on my part. I would like to change my name so that my first name is completely dropped, my middle name…

RANT: Ohio BMV Name Change

Discussion by lo99 · June 2010 · Home› Local Wedding Boards› Ohio-Columbus

Warning: LONG! In summary, bureaucracy sucks, and according to the State of Ohio I have one name and a different name with the Federal Government. ARGH! I don't think I've ever been so frustrated in my life. I took today off work to change my name, open gifts, get organized. So far, all I've been able to accomplish is…
Obligatory name change thread

Discussion by memSomerville · April 2011 · Home› Wedding Discussion Boards› 40-Plus Brides

On every board I peeked at in my recent forays, there was at least one (sometimes more) name change threads. This is another topic that could have very different issues from that of younger brides. No judgement--just curiousity--what are your plans? Interesting name change stories I've seen:A Swede by Any Other Name. In…

For a middle name change, you must still go through the process of changing your name. I changed my middle name several years ago. You definitely will need to use an attorney. You will need to publish your name change, and have a formal hearing in front of a judge. This is to allow people the opportunity to contest the…

Discussion by ksokoloski · October 2009 · Home› Local Wedding Boards› Ohio-Northeast

When you went to change you name, did you need to go to the SS office first or the DMV first? I've been told both ways and i'm not sure which is correct.Also, did you find it cost you alot of money to change you name. Obviously you have to pay for a new drivers liscense but were there any other places that charged you? I…
Name change complete

Discussion by emt16 · November 2009 · Home› Local Wedding Boards› New Jersey

So finally my name change is complete, I kept dragging my feet about going to DMV but i just got it out of the way. There is only one little detail at work that I am trying to get sorted out (my email) but everything else is done. It feels good and strange at the same time.

Discussion by Exgirlfriend · August 2011 · Home› Local Wedding Boards› Minnesota-Minneapolis and St. Paul

My guy and I decided that we're both going to change our last names. We're going to change the spelling and smoosh his hypenated last names together to make a new last name. It's what we really both want. We went to the Hennepin County government center today to get our marriage license. I filled out all the paperwork…
