When is name yourself day

A lawyer is not necessary, but there sometimes are legal fees. A legal document such as a marriage certificate, divorce decree, or court granted petition must first be obtained. Forms are filled out and taken to a court clerk, and a judge or magistrate reviews them and grants the name change.

Many states don't require a petition, but many financial and government agencies do. After the legal document is obtained, applications should be submitted to government agencies such as the Social Security Administration, Department of Motor Vehicles, and Internal Revenue Service. Then the name change should be made aware to businesses such as banks, credit card companies, and utility companies. The post office should also be notified.

People change both their first names and last names, do it legally and informally, and for a myriad of reasons. On National Name Yourself Day, any of these routes to changing one's name may be used. Although there are various rules about changing your name if you do it permanently, if you are just changing your name for the day, you can change it to whatever you want!

Change your name for the day or make the change permanent. You could change your first, middle, or last name, or all three. Monitor journalism changes lives because we open that too-small box that most people think they live in. We believe news can and should expand a sense of identity and possibility beyond narrow conventional expectations. My work in Kenya, for example, was heavily influenced by a Christian Science Monitor article I had forced myself to read 10 years earlier.

If you were to come up with a punchline to a joke about the Monitor, that would probably be it. But you know what? We change lives. We have a mission beyond circulation, we want to bridge divides. And we can prove it. Your subscription to The Christian Science Monitor has expired. You can renew your subscription or continue to use the site without a subscription.
