Can I (legally) change my last name as my first and use G. (Walter) Krebs as mid & last?

You can legally change your name to just about anything....one guy officially changed his name to Trout Fishing In America.

In many states it is as simple as using a new name in place of the old one. This can be problematic when traveling since 9/11 though. \nI reccomend one of two things: search online for you states and local laws on the matter or visit your county courthouse and someone there will be able to point out the forms and fees required to go about changing it that way.

of course it would affect your case..it can give you a good chance not to be convicted, right? unles it's a typographical error ;), kidding aside...such concern is critical and having a wrong last name on paperwork is a big matter to consider!

as you said in your question, you would just change it from one to the other, legally of course at the courthouse, \n\nhowever if your looking for a literal translation there is none for english names, those words did not exist in our history.

Use whatever name you like.  If you want to change now or change later it's all good.

No, you won't get in trouble for this.  But you need to contact the IRS as soon as possible, and also the social security office to get the spelling of your name corrected in their records.

Go to options, then general prefrences and you should be able to change it on there.  It has a field where you can change your outgoing name.

It's too late to change it, now. You'll lose to much time starting over and not to mention, money. The degree with your name on it, only matters. I was in the same situtation, before I graduated a few years ago. I changed my major in grad school.

You need to petition the court and I think pay the filing cost, which is around $50.00, and they can go in and ammend your birth certificate.  Then voila! new name

For it to be a legal name it would be on the original birth certificate. You can submit or call the capital of the state you were born in, and request it.

Probably not. Especially for women, the first name introduced into the court system is considered your actual name, and any other name you use later (ie. married name, changed name) is technically considered an alias, even if it is your legal name. A lot of times, the summons or supoena will list the first name, even if it is no longer the name used.\n\nHope that helps.

Well I don't think you can legally change any of the data on a birth certificate.After all it's a sworn statement.You can call yourselves any name you wish legally by deed poll
