If a name change was part of the divorce judgment and order it already is changed. You should be updating your various accounts, documentation, paperwork, etc. If it was not part of the judgment you will probably have to file a petition to change your name. This petition would not be part of the divorce proceeding.

Nice picture, but knows nothing about California law. You need to complete and file FL-395. Your local facilitator's office will help, if you need it.
