My x-wife used my last name after our divorce. Since then she has remarried and changed her last name to that of her husband. Now she is again divorced but is again using my name as her last name . Is this legal?

Re: name
Yes, it's legal, unfortunately.
A lot of times woman keep (or revert to) their ex's last names because they want some consistency with any children's names.
Or it could be that she just likes your name.
Her keeping your name is annoying, I'm sure, but there are no legal ramifications to you. In other words, you're not liable for any of her actions now, regardless of what name she uses.
Hope this helps answer your questions. If not, message me again.
