I believe the judge can disapprove it if the new name is offensive.
Some politician added a legal middle name of 'Low Tax'. He was convicted of murdering his opponent later on. Took politics a bit too seriously.

After Larry and I got divorced I kept his name because I didn't want to deal with changing it back to what it was before.
It doesn't appear that I'm the stupid one.

My college girlfriend's roommate had the last name "Teats". She was a veterinary student. Within a year of starting college she had her last name changed to something innocuous like Miller or Walters.

I knew a girl with the last name Hymen, she could not wait till she got married. She had a boyfriend with the nickname Buster, can't make this stuff up.

Correct, I told my ex multiple times during our divorce that if she was ever wanting to change her name back it was much easier and cheaper for her to do it before the final court date. She kept telling me her attorney told her I was full of ####.. At our last court date I again brought it up in front of Master Harris and he then told her the same thing.. And it went into the divorce decree.
And when she desires to change it, the court paperwork is already done.
If it was as simple as going to the DMV and requesting a name change, lol how would anybody really know who anybody is.

MADISON, Wis. — Authorities in southern Wisconsin are facing a tongue twister thanks to the arrest of Beezow Doo-Doo Zopittybop-Bop-Bop.
I didn't have to meet with a judge - and I live in Calvert County. I filed for my name change and paid about the same as you stated maybe more. I know I was irritated with myself for having to spend money to do it, when I could have had the judge do it at the time of my divorce. Took 2 months from start to finish, including listing it in the local newspaper.

Yeah, but what creditors actually read the "Calvert Recorder" v.s. "The Washington Post" etc...
Unless they are in Calvert County.
In general they can do a quick judicial search after the name change to see if the party they are suing had changed their name. Something that should be done anyway (due diligence)

Depends on the judge among other factors. Date filed and procedures used. The clerk indicated the judge sees everyone for a name change nowadays. Maybe someone changed their name to avoid something in the past or maybe a judge decided to follow due diligence.
Personally if I were the judge, I'd want a personal appearance to make sure the person is serious and to have a judicial record created. If you don't come to court, then you don't give a ####, case dismissed....
He just asked my wife the reason, is she escaping debt, does she have any criminal etc.... Pretty standard questions. He granted judgement the same day and provided 3 original court orders with several "true test" copies...
Thats the sillyness of legal notices for you. Same applies to legal notices about mortgage sales or bond issues. Just an ancient legal requirement without practical consequences.

I'm fairly certain someone has all these "legal notices" on lockdown. For instance if you were a "Foreclosure chaser", you'd want to see all the legal notices for foreclosures etc... first thing in the morning to be the first to pull the trigger...
I guess I wasn't required to appear for questioning because I'm white. :shrug: I mean, it is Calvert Co afterall.
Right. But for that, it would make more sense to have legal notices posted to the courts website or a database. The requirement to post it in a local paper-printed record along with all this extraneous verbiage serves very little purpose.

I had it in my divorce that I can change my last name back to maiden name. My minor kids at the time didn't want me to because we'd have different last names. So here I am some 15 years later still with his name.

That's not the first thing I'm thinking. But, if you know CC to be that bad, well...... You certainly have more information than me.

You're the one who always implies the county is racist.
Well one of the sayings that I've heard and agree with this....
"Not every Republican is a racist, but every racist I knew was a Republican"....
And unfortunately there are a huge concentration of Republicans, super right wing, fascist, holly rollers and gun nuts in CC.
Trump certainly didn't help you guys...
