What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? OR
When we married, my wife took my last name. During our marriage, my wife legally changed her first name, as she didn't like her given name. Now that we're in the process of getting divorced, she would like to go back to her original last name, but keep her current legal first name. Is this possible as part of the divorce paperwork, of will she need to go through a separate name change process? Does the court require you to go back to a full legal name that you previously used?
Thanks,
Greg
