Did you know? In California, either parent can request to legally change a child’s last name—but it requires court approval and sometimes both parents’ consent.

This often comes up during adoption, custody disputes, or when a parent wants to establish or reaffirm a deeper bond. The court's focus? Always the best interests of the child—not just what the parents want.

At FADEM, we’ve guided countless families through name changes as part of broader legal transitions like second-parent adoption, custody agreements, or divorce.

Have questions about changing a child’s name or updating legal documents? We’re here to help.
