Reasons for Changing One's Name

• Marriage or civil partnership (e.g. Tiffany Rodriguez marries Aanchal Chaudhari and assumes her surname, becoming Tiffany Chaudhari)
• Adoption, or marriage of a custodial parent
• Divorce or estrangement of parents
• Immigration / adaptation of the name to a different language or script (e.g. Samantha Ogden became Shilpa Ojha on becoming an Indian national)
• To evade the law or a debt or commit fraud
• To avoid a stalker or harassment
• Religious conversion and/or deconversion, ordination or return to lay status (e.g., Cassius Clay to Muhammad Ali upon conversion to Islam)
• To choose a surname associated with a hobby, interest, or accomplishment (e.g., old name Henry Schifberg, new name Henry Lizardlover)
• To receive an inheritance conditional on adopting the name of the deceased (this reason was once quite common in landowning families in the UK)
• To replace a name which might be considered undesirable with a more desirable one (e.g., old surname Lipschitz, new surname London)
• To dissociate themselves from a famous or infamous person (e.g., old name Michael Jackson, new name Martin Jackson)
• To identify with a famous or infamous person (e.g., old name Simon Johnson, new name Simon Pendragon)
• To dissociate themselves from a family black sheep (e.g., relatives of Adolf Hitler).
• To dissociate themselves from an ethnic origin (e.g., changing Battenberg to Mountbatten or Jan Ludvik Hoch to Robert Maxwell).
• Commercial sponsorship, e.g., Jimmy White temporarily became Jimmy Brown for HP brown sauce.[1] Ashley Revell became Ashley Blue Square Revell for Rank Group's Blue Square service. Peter Janson briefly changed his name by deed poll to NGK Janson to circumvent a Motorsport Australia rule that only allowed a driver's, and not a sponsor's, name to be carried on a windscreen at the 1977 Bathurst 1000.
• Protest or activism (e.g., old name Jennifer Taylor, new name Jennifer Save the Forests)
• To change to a fictional character's name, (e.g., old name Tracy Darling, new name Tracy Beaker)
• To make their name more attractive or "catchy" so as to increase their chance of success (see Stage name)
• To change the legal name to the one used in everyday life (e.g., where middle name has been used throughout life)
• To remove superstitious consequences of the old name (e.g. old name Mulyono, new name Joko Widodo)
• To better fit one's gender identity, or as part of one's gender transition (e.g. Jake Zyrus)
• Losing a bet - for instance, a New Zealand man changed his name to Full Metal Havok More Sexy N Intelligent Than Spock And All The Superheroes Combined With Frostnova, and apparently discovered it has been accepted when his passport expired.
• In accordance with witness protection.

Name Change

Name change is the legal act by a person of adopting a new name different from their current name.

The procedures and ease of a name change vary between jurisdictions. In general, common law jurisdictions have loose procedures for a name change while civil law jurisdictions are more restrictive.

A pseudonym is a name used in addition to the original or true name. This does not require legal sanction. Pseudonyms are generally adopted to conceal a person's identity, but may also be used for personal, social or ideological reasons.

Legal Document Assistant, History In Louisiana

Certain types of legal documents can be drafted by a notary public in the State of Louisiana. Louisiana notaries public prepare and draft legal documents of a noncontentious nature (i.e. not for court cases) such as wills, trusts, marriage contracts, articles of incorporation, estate inventories, mortgages, real estate sales contracts, powers of attorney, etc. Aside from drafting, they are also authorized to make inventories, property descriptions, take company minutes, and appraise and convey real estate. Louisiana, along with Puerto Rico, have this exception because prior to inclusion in the United States, both were (and continue to be) under the civil law legal system. Under civil law, notaries are lawyers, which is why in Louisiana notaries are appointed for life and used to be licensed before the advent of practice of law statutes in the 1930s. Louisiana notaries public are not required to be attorneys or otherwise trained in law; however, they do have to pass an extensive exam on notarial law (i.e., the areas of law a notary can draft for - property law, estate law, family law, etc.), they must sign and witness the signing of the documents they draft (notarial acts), and register and file those documents with the local court.
