To ask for grammar help

I can't work out the following. Do I use 'yourselves', 'you', or something else?

Sentence:

I was given your details by a friend who recently changed her daughter's name, verified by yourselves. 


Thanks.

[Putyourdamnshoeson]

If you word it this way, you. Never yourselves.

[VanillaSugar]

Well, is "you" plural or singular?

[YouStoleTheBowlFromTheRoom]

^^ That 😚

[Putyourdamnshoeson]

My friend recently changed her daughter's name, she has passed me your details as you verified it. Etc

[YouStoleTheBowlFromTheRoom]

It doesn’t matter if single or plural - yourself/yourselves are reflexive, and not appropriate here.

You tickled yourself
Signed by you

For example!

[NetRunner]

Just 'you' here.

[Fettuccinecarbonara]

'As verified by you'

[GU24Mum]

Definitely "you".

You can probably make the sentence a bit more readable depending what the next section is......eg:

A friend of mine has passed your details to me. You recently verified the change of name for her daughter ............. and I would like to know if you can do this for me............

[Prictoriafeckam]

"You" is fine; "yourselves" doesn't add anything, just comes across as pompous. Or you could put "which you verified".

[Lowdoorinthewal1]

verified by your organisation?

[Goldmandra]

Definitely you, not yourselves (ever).

[inappropriateraspberry]

I like fettuccine, id go with ‘as verified by you’.

[Lowdoorinthewal1]

I was given your details by a friend who recently changed her daughter's name; this name change was verified by your organisation.

Thanks all!

A pet hate of mine is when people use myself when they should say 'me', but I was having a real mental block with this one.

Ta for the correction
