Re: I want my name back!
There is nothing you can do. There is no legal avenue for one natural person to force another to change a name. You have no property rights to "your" name. Once legally changed, as through marriage, the name is hers to keep if she wishes.

If you want to try to force her to change her name, you should consult a local attorney to review the possibilities.
