General name change information
A child's name change rights upon adoption
A child who has been formally adopted does not need a Deed Poll
to change their surname since the adoptive birth certificate provides the
necessary documentary evidence that the child's surname has changed to that of
the adopted family's surname. All government departments, companies and
organisations will change their records to show the new family surname upon
presentation of the adoptive birth certificate.
