yeh, the forms are probably available, but there is a transaction cost to it up; ie if you don't get it right, get it to the right clerk, dot the "i's" correctly, you could make a career out of it. I learned early on, particularly with the state system, that the clerks wield the real power. knowing the ropes is worth money. dunno if that guy is any good, but somebody that does this regularly should make it go smoothly; that's what you pay for. |

Des, I beleive the cost isn't that much atleast in MN it wasn't that much when our family started to change back to our original Italian name. THe cost was around a hundred bucks and you needed to go to court in front of a judge stating that you are not doing this to get away from anything legally or illegally. And you need 2 witnesses I think. |

Mr Pizano, I never looked into it but I'm sure someone here knows or you can find it on the web.

LOL, William, i already have a name picked out...! You guys are killing me, here - do you really think i would change my name to Goggles Pizano or Diablo...? LMAO...! i just need to know what's involved in making it happen... No, Will, no problems with girls or the IRS (although, my account called me on Friday and said i owed $800- we talked for a few minutes, now i owe $1 ), but even if i did have a problem with the IRS, they go by SSN, not name- William, you said you needed to, what does the process entail...? Thanks... |

Des, I've needed to. Why are you wanting to change your name? Problems with a woman or the IRS? If you do, here's some ideas. Dino Ferrari Goggles Pizano Max Power Des Ferrari

LOL, you guys are just a barrell of laughs... IF i change it, it won't be SED, Enzo, Ferrari, Enzo Ferrari, Diablo (although that would have an inside, underlying significance), Cup Holder, etc, etc... Before i make any decisions, i need info on what's involved... The suggestions are great, but i already have something picked out...  |

Can anyone tell me what's required in legally changing a name...? Costs, etc, etc... Has anyone ever done this before...? Are there any hidden pitfalls, etc, etc...? Any and all information would be greatly appreciated. Thanks...  |
