It is advisable that you simply ask for it as part of the divorce decree.

You can ask for that to be part of your divorce decree. If you are trying to change back prior to a divorce, you can do it, but it may cause you problems later. Just remember that changing you name does not change your social security number and if you are changing to hide your identity you could be held on charges of fraud.
