Name change post wedding

[Bettyboop82]

So I got married a few weeks ago. How do I go about changing my name? Is it automatic? I kNow I have to go into my bank with ID to change my name on bank account and mortgage. What about HMRC? Passport? Driving licence? Am I forgetting anything?

It isn’t automatic as it’s a matter of choice.

If you want to change your name you have to take in your wedding certificate or send it off to places. DVLA you have to fill a form in and send off with wedding cert.

I'm a nurse, so if you're registered with a professional body you will have to do the same.

I've changed mine everywhere bar PayPal - that is a pain in the arse.

Your name only changes if you change it. Do you actually want to change it or do you think it's what you should do?
