Get through the 40-institution slog of changing your name — after marriage, divorce, transition, or just because — in the right order, so one update doesn't block the next, with nothing important forgotten. Use when someone says 'I changed my name and don't know where to start', 'update my name everywhere', 'name change checklist', or is planning any legal name change. Produces an ordered update checklist (what unlocks what), a personalized institution list, and templates. Not legal advice — the logistics; the legal deed/court step is flagged, not performed.

The reason for the change —…
