How likely would a judge agree to removing a child’s surname? My ex isn’t involved at all but dd has both mine and his surnames but not double barrelled, when I first named her I asked the person registering what way I should put it so mine is the main one used, she told me to put it first, I later found out this isn’t the case when everywhere starting dropping mine and only referring to dd under exes name; after looking into it I found out it’s because places will assume mine is the middle name 😒despite not being involved he won’t let me change it to remove his name, I’ve managed to get everywhere to refer to dd under my name only but I would still like to officially change it, I thought this could be changed herself at 16 but have now seen it’s actually 18?! Would a judge ever agree to remove it, father has no contact at all and dd has only ever been known as my surname (I’ve changed it so everywhere only uses mine)
