I’m marrying again this year after being widowed five years ago. My fiancé has also been widowed. When he married for the first time, he and his wife double-barrelled their names, eg Smith-Jones with Jones being his surname.
When we marry, I would like to take his name (Jones) but not his late wife’s. He plans to stay as Smith-Jones as he has children with that name.
Does anyone know if I can submit our marriage certificate with his name as Smith-Jones in order to change my name on my passport and driving licence to Jones? We live in Scotland.
