He is taking MY SURNAME!!!!

Please help,

My Fiance is taking my Surname.
However we do not know what the procedure is when he wants to change all of his details legally. Is it just the same as a woman would do or what. Just to make it worse for this answer, He is Jamaican and we are getting married in Jamaica.

PLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEASE can someone help. Id there a Laywer Bride on line that can help me or anyone else who knows about these things????

Re: He is taking MY SURNAME!!!!

It is possible for the groom to change his name if you both prefer. This makes things very simple for the bride. The groom can start using the bride's surname straight after the wedding. It is exactly the same as a woman would do. It doesn't matter where he is from. You can do it legally with Official New Bride Name Change Kit.

There are lots of companies and parts of your life that you need to consider as you change your name, most of which will need to be notified in writing. Write a standard letter informing people of your name change and attach a photocopy of your marriage certificate to each. Government departments and Banks will need to see the original document to make the changes but most other establishments will simply need a photocopy.

We have listed below many of the companies and organisations you need advise of your name change:

  • Bank
  • Credit card and store cards
  • Clubs and societies
  • Dentist
  • Department of Health & Social Security
  • Doctor
  • Driving Licence Association
  • Employer
  • Email address change?
  • Finance/loan companies
  • Internal Revenue Service Revenue
  • Institutes such as universities etc
  • Insurance companies
  • Investment companies including premium bonds and shares
  • Mail order catalogue companies
  • Car organizations
  • Passport office
  • Pension company

Me three!!! I tried to tell FH "I don't want your last name. I still want to stay a Mallary". He thought I was crazy. I was only joking with him though.

Re: He is taking MY SURNAME!!!!

I've heard of this before but it's rare that a man would use his wife's surname.He must have really hated his own because usually a man has pride in his surname and many would be offended if their wives don't take their hubby's.I wonder what was his surname?

Born Blessed!

Not rare at all. Sometimes there's bad history with his surname and it's a good way to a fresh start.

Living my life like it's GOLDEN!!

If I'm not mistaken - I think it is common with Royality.
