When a couple gets divorced, both parties have an opportunity to change their name. Either party may change their name, whether or not they have been known by one or more names previously. A party changing their name must confirm to the family court on the record that the name change is not for purposes of defrauding others (such as creditors). And if the party changing their name has been convicted of a felony, there are additional steps to take to complete the name change, involving an application to the party’s prosecuting authority.
