I got my name changed today. I must say as long as you have all the paperwork in order it's a rather uneventful process. Waiting at the DMV is still a pain in the ass though.

Way cool. Maddie. And the DMV can be a pain, because they are a government agency.

Hi Maddie Secutura
Congratulations on getting your name changed. As you have gathered already (DMV) you still have to change all of your other documents which can be a pain :)
Kind regards

Congratulations, Maddie! :eusa_dance:
I had thought changing mine would be no big deal - a minor step in the transition process. But when I got papers saying the GUMMINT said I was Katherine I realized it is a big deal. How can you argue with the gummint? :)

I waited at the DMV for a long time and finally got my new license. They couldn't take the "M" off of it but whatever. I already have a story to explain why its there should anyone ask.
"Apparently they accidentally put M instead of F and hell if I'm going to wait in line at the DMV to get it changed."

Congratulations :) Getting all my ID and other records updated after my court order came through was the part I hated most. Then again I hate anytime I have to deal with a government agency, especially when I confused the hell out of them about what gender to refer to me as.
