Re: Name Change
You may use any name you wish as long as you are not doing it to defraud someone. If you want to legally change your name on Drivers licence or social security or other legal document then you need to file a petition for name change in the superior court. The clerks have the forms and it is fairly simple to do if you are an adult. It a minor you need your parents consent.
