In the UK its quite simple

https://www.deedpoll.org.uk/

Basically apply and you will want to order a few copies that cost extra, these are ones you need to send away with drivers license and passport and will also need for banking changes.

Precisely, that's how I did it, Kally.

Hugs to you both

That looks like one of those scam sites charging for something you can get for free:

gov.uk/government/publications/apply-to-change-your-name-forms-

There are unenrolled deed polls, and enrolled deed polls. You can do your own deed poll on the back of a cocktail napkin. The important thing is the wording, a witness, and a signature. You can find templates online.

BTW, both of the links given above involve a fee.   ;)
