So, I finally got my name changed earlier this week and the judge was super nice! However, when I got the court order in the mail, the judge had misspelled my new middle name. What should I do? I was so excited to go out and get everything changed on Friday or Monday. :(

Take it back to the court clerk.
Did the judge have you proof-read it before it was signed?

You will have to contact the court. If it was spelled right on the application, then the judge was at fault.
