 The purpose of a name is to identify a person. So long as a person does not intend to evade identification or perpetrate a fraud, a person may legally change their name.
The most common reason for choosing to legally change an individual's name is in the case of marriage or a divorce. Florida law allows women to change their name as part of their divorce. The request to change her name is included in her petition or counter petition for dissolution. Her name change will become incorporated into the Final Judgment of Dissolution of Marriage. If the man is the one who changed his name in the event of a marriage, the same law applies.

If a legal name change does not involve a marriage or divorce, Florida law allows a person to change their name by filing a verified petition establishing:
Changing the name of a minor child:
A child�s name may be changed by the Court through an adoption or paternity proceeding.
When Paternity is not an issue:
A petition to change a minor child�s name must be brought be one or both parents. If only one of the parents brings the petition, however the other parent must consent to the change or be served with the petition so he or she may be heard on the issue.
