Superior Court of California, County of Orange · Orange Superior Court — Name Change (opens in a new tab)

Reviewed local Name change subject context

The process for changing a name can be complicated, and it is somewhat different depending on whether the name being changed is for an adult, or a child (minor), although many of the same forms are used. You can find more information about changing a name and/or gender for adults and minors on the tabs to your left. After a court grants your request, there are numerous places you need to notify (such as social security, DMV, passport office, etc.), to update your legal documents. Below you will find more information to help with that step.
