Name: Yulia Abramova

“Initially my name was Yulia Abramova. When I was about 10 years old, we got a computer and a modem at home and I began to master the Internet. I started a diary on diary.ru. I had to come up with a unique nickname, a name that would describe me. For a year and a half I was thinking about what to call myself. The Olsen sisters were very popular back then. From there Ashley. And Roxanne was often the name of heroines in films of that time. Both names are beautiful both in writing and in pronunciation. So I folded Roxanne and Ashley together to make Roshley, and then I folded it down to Roshley. Written in English by Roshlay. Fell in love. I officially changed five years ago, at the age of 21, and since then I have become completely close to Ro.

Mom wanted to call me Vika. But in the maternity hospital, her sister and dad persuaded her to give her the name Julia. Now I treat him tenderly, it’s still a part of me, my young self. Nevertheless, I didn’t like it, I didn’t feel anything for it.

Mom frowned when she learned about the name change, but since she respects my choice, she immediately began calling me Ro. She calls me Yulia if she remembers incidents that happened when I was Yulia. Dad tries not to call me anything; without me, he calls me Yulia or “little”, since I am the youngest of the children in the family. One aunt supports my decision and calls me Ro, the second cannot get used to it. The uncle says: “Leave the child alone, you’re already an adult.”

As for the surname, originally I was Abramova. It sounds very formal, like an adjective that doesn't describe anything. I had company, friends often called me Hummingbird, I liked this nickname, and in the end I took it into official documents. My parents tried to persuade me not to change my last name, but I didn’t give up. Only now there are a lot of questions like “If you get married, will you change?”, “What surname will the children take?” I answer right away: after marriage I will not change my last name. If a girl is born, she will have my last name, and a boy will have my husband’s last name.

As for the bureaucratic hassle, there was practically none. I just came to the registry office, submitted an application to change my last name and first name, paid the state fee of one and a half thousand and waited for them to tell me what and how. And soon they called me and gave me a certificate of changing my first and last name. After receiving it, I went to all the institutions where they changed my Taxpayer Identification Number, insurance, pension, and passport.”

Name: Nastya

“Initially my name was Nastya Grishaeva. My parents and relatives constantly called me Nastyusha, but my friends and acquaintances, as soon as they found out my last name, began to mock me kindly. And at school, and at KVN, and anywhere - I was Grishka. Until the age of 15 this was normal. But then I started to have a complex: “They call me a boy’s name, does that mean I look like a boy?” At that time, my hair reached my lower back, I wore makeup, and was a student at a modeling agency, so it was difficult to call me a boy. Nevertheless, they continued to call me that, and it hurt me greatly, so I began to look for a replacement for this nickname. Having split my last name into two parts, I realized that I could be Eva! I think it's very feminine. This is a very beautiful girl’s name, short, precise, unusual and rare (which is important, because in our school every fourth girl was Nastya). So I asked everyone to call me Eva, and after a month or two everyone forgot that I was a guy. For several years I was Eva exclusively on social networks, but as soon as I turned 18, I immediately took this name officially.

Over the years, I have become so close to this name that when I hear the name Nastya, I do not react to it. It is sometimes very difficult for my parents to shout to me, even if I am sitting across from them. So now they mostly just call me “daughter.”

My parents are already accustomed to the fact that they receive letters marked “Eva sent you a letter!”, and to the fact that my WhatsApp nickname is Evushka. Sometimes they make a joke from the Internet: “Like ribs, like Eve.” And when I come to visit them, they constantly ask me to sing the song “Eva, I loved you.”

At the same time, my closest friends are not yet fully accustomed to the new name. They still call me Nastya in messages, or when they are angry with me, or when they urgently need my help. A childhood friend, whom we have known since the age of three, says that she doesn’t know any Eva, that for her only Nastya exists.”

Name: Inna Aleksandrovna Didenko

“Initially my name was Inna Aleksandrovna Didenko, then I changed my name and became Polina Vladimirovna Arakcheeva.

I decided to change my name because the old one was terrible and creepy. That is, when they addressed me by name, I perceived it as name-calling. And also, you know, this stretching of the “nn” in the name Inna adds abomination. Because of this, you respond to being called by name through force, during roll call by last name, or when you need to enter a last name somewhere, you cope with waves of disgust, and so on.

Mom knew about the whole spectrum of my hostile feelings towards passport data. When I was 17 years old, divorce proceedings with my stepfather, who gave me my last and patronymic names, were in full swing, which my mother and I were very happy about. Then my mother asked if I wanted to change my last and patronymic names for this reason. I replied that I was more concerned about the last name and first name. The compromise option included changing all three positions. For the next six months, every month I reminded my closest relatives how serious and important this decision was for me, and that this was not a whim. And when she came of age, she happily jumped to the registry office to technically realize her dream.

You know, all sorts of surveys and questionnaires are very popular among children, they say, what is your favorite female name? What about men's? What would you name your children? So, around the time I graduated from school, I had a small list of names that I liked, there were two male and one female, and it was in the category of “that’s what I would name my daughter.” But I had to spend one of my favorite names on myself. In general, I have a joke about associations with the shift (with some truth, as it should be) that I recorded some of my attachments in my passport, and this is more powerful than a tattoo!

The story with the surname is even more fun. I believe that in many ways my conscious life began with the university, which I decided to enter at the last moment. Everything turned out great, and a huge number of wonderful things in my life simply would not have happened if I had not entered the HSE School of Cultural Studies. To enter, you had to pass the Unified State Examination in history. In the last big writing task there, it was necessary to describe some outstanding historical character. I calculated who I might come across and mentally said: “It would be nice to have someone from the era of Alexander I - Speransky or Arakcheev. However, the second can hardly be expected.” In the end, I came across Count Arakcheev, I described him with the maximum score, passed history with flying colors and entered HSE, and my life became what it is now. So this gesture (taking Arakcheev’s surname) is an open homage to fate.

At first I didn’t think about changing my middle name; my mother was rather interested in this point - she was worried that I might still have bad associations with her husband’s name. The solution was simple: the patronymic Vladimirovna is a derivative of the name of my mother’s father, my grandfather, who took and continues to take an active part in my fate and helps in every possible way. It seemed like he was pleased!

Friends reacted to everything calmly and easily. Difficulties arose with former classmates and, in general, with all those who are called “people from a past life.” If everything could be calmly explained to those with whom communication was pleasant, then those with whom relations at school did not work out, during contacts after school (for example, when discussing an alumni meeting or going to visit teachers) they will definitely talk about it somehow they mentioned nasty things, refused to name them in accordance with the new data. Although I think this is an insult to honor and dignity. Personal appeals to professors and university administration such as “please copy all the initials on the transcript for me” and “sign the application to change student” were accompanied only by nice comments “oh, wow, this is how it happens!” There was no condemnation. Except that the registry office staff were extremely surprised and, it seems, expected me to name more eccentric options.”

Name: Ekaterina

“Man is a creative being. Everyone is their own boss - we choose our career, friends, image to our liking... Why not choose a name that suits you? The Piraha Indians change their name six times in their lives.

Originally my name was Katya. There were five Katyas in the class, and when one of us was called, five heads turned at once. It's funny, but a little annoying. I also don’t really like the letters “k” and “t” - voiced consonants sound more pleasant. I liked the name Vlad: in my opinion, it is at the same time rare, noble and at the same time simple. People who meet me for the first time often compliment my name - and I take these compliments with great pleasure: it means I’ve chosen a good name for myself. I changed my name when I was 19 years old. Many, by the way, don’t call me by my name, but I don’t mind: I have a beautiful surname - Felitsyna, and I have become close to numerous nicknames like Phil, Felits, Filets since childhood.”

Name: Alexander

“My name used to be Alexander, but now I’m Philip. I made this decision, one might say, by accident. One day I heard someone in the crowd address someone by name, Philip. And for some reason I liked the sound so much. That day I had the idea to take the name Philip for myself. I don’t even know why it attracted me so much. I just suddenly thought that it would be nice to go through life with him. As a result, after a couple of months I went to the registry office and became Philip. Now I absolutely love this name. I like it when they say it, it pleases the ear.

Friends surprisingly accepted everything easily. They think the new name suits me very well. Parents, on the contrary, did not accept this transition. They calmly reacted to the name change, but they continue to call them Sasha.”

Name: Natalya

“At the age of 16, in my first year at the institute, on the recommendation of my older sister, I began to participate in master classes on personal development. There, one of the participants said that I looked like the heroine of the Strugatsky brothers’ book “It’s Hard to Be a God,” Kira. Since this all started. All the participants in the master classes started calling me Kira. A year later, at a regional student educational forum, I introduced myself like this. My further friendships and professional activities began there, on the forum, because for all the people around me at that time, I was exclusively Kira. Many didn't even know that I had another name. And I already felt completely different and somehow didn’t associate myself with my previous name.

I’ve been Kira for 16 years now. Now, when they ask why I changed my name, I rather answer others and myself that I wanted to be unusual, to stand out, to be special, different from others, and maybe even from myself at that time. Kira made me feel more confident and stable. And I just always really liked the name.

At first my dad answered his friends on the phone, “People like that don’t live here,” but over time everyone got used to it. And now I notice with great gratitude how in a professional environment and when communicating with my friends, my parents and sister call me Kira. For myself, as a daughter and sister, I will forever be little Natasha. For myself as an adult - Kira.”

A change of name invariably entails corresponding changes in vibrations. The vibrations of the previous name are never completely erased - just as the issuance of a changed document under seal does not change the very personality of a person. Nevertheless, a change of name entails the appearance of new people and things in a person’s life, and also introduces changes into the circumstances of his life - for better or worse.

If a person decides to change his last name, he always has good reasons - at the same time he is moving to a different lifestyle or starting a different career. When a woman gets married, she usually changes her maiden name to her husband's last name. However, not a single woman out of hundreds of thousands ever turns to numerology for advice, which would allow us to determine how harmonious the vibrations of the bride and groom are and whether a change of surname will have a beneficial effect on the woman’s future destiny.

In cases where the customary replacement of the maiden name with the husband's last name does not bring harmonious vibrations, adding a new name to the old one through a hyphen can be useful.

There are many situations in which a name change occurs. Here are some of them.

When a person feels that his name does not suit him, in this case he says: “This is not mine.”

Before abandoning a child, the mother gives him a name, and the adoptive parents change it.

When a woman gets married, she takes her husband's surname.

When a child is named after a relative, in order not to confuse them, a diminutive name is invented for the child.

People often shorten their names, for example, instead of Dmitry they say Dima, in this manner they especially often address children in order to both save time and call them affectionately. There are names in which the root changes in incomplete form, for example, Vova - Vladimir, Alexander - Sasha.

Sometimes they address a person affectionately, without using his name, but simply say: “My bunny,” etc.

We have a first name, a middle name and a last name, but some people make up a new name for themselves from them.

When changing a name, you should remember that it really doesn't affect the vibration of the heart, or idealism, and only adds new vibrations. For example, upon marriage, the husband’s vibrations influence the wife, introducing new responsibilities into her life and causing a change in the environment.

Accordingly, her outlook on life, and sometimes some ideals, change. All this is reflected in the numbers of the new name. When analyzing the consequences of changing a name, one should not lose sight of the fact that previously a woman could vibrate destructively in one or more numbers, and the appearance of negative vibrations in a new name is also possible. In order to unravel a person’s character, an experienced psychologist is often required, whose knowledge and instinct are combined with the skills of a numerologist.

When changing your name, you should first check your Birthday Number, which always remains the same. If the Birthday or Life Path Number is odd, then the new Personality Number (and, preferably, the Destiny Number) is also better “selected” to the odd (spiritual) vibration. If the Birthday Number is even (material), then the final number of the new name should, if possible, be even, which ensures harmonious vibrations.

When a person himself decides to change his name, this means that he wants to complement his personality with new vibrations. Thus, the choice of a new surname must be approached with the utmost seriousness. Receiving a new name at baptism also entails changes. Diminutive names only indicate what those who call him by that name think about a person. In order to determine this, it is enough to add only the vowels that determine the internal vibrations of the diminutive name.

A name is a person's calling card. They will recognize you by it. It characterizes you. A name is a ticket to life. How can you find out if your name suits you? Names can form either stable and useful connections with life, or unstable and useless ones. But if you've decided that your name isn't right for you, if you keep looking at other names, or if you've just recently felt that it doesn't suit you, then it's time to make some changes.

The most important condition when choosing a name is your independent decision. This important decision will change your life. At critical moments in life, you need information, not advice, to make a decision, because your decision does not affect anyone else but you. Every day, looking at yourself in the mirror, you must understand that you are responsible for your actions, which at one time pushed you to this decision. Only then will you be able to fully receive both the predictable and unexpected results of your actions.

When you have selected a few names, show them to a numerologist or astrologer. Together, you can go back to the moment of your birth and explore your innate energy line patterns in more detail. Have a professional write the formulas for each of your chosen names, then compare them to make the right choice.

You must know how this will change your life. The specialist will re-derive the formula from your new name, and you will discuss with him in detail how the new name will change your self-understanding and the purpose for which you came into the world.

Most often, a name is changed due to prejudice or because it is the subject of constant ridicule. In fact, this rarely happens and only when parents, carried away by some ideas, give their children completely ridiculous names: Aurora, Industry, Electron, etc.

For the most part, all the names are good and not at all funny. Some names simply go out of fashion, but over time they come back to us. A name that gets ridiculed is often simply not suitable for the person who bears it. The resonance caused by such a name does not correspond to the internal spiritual vibrations of its bearer.

You can have a very beautiful name and feel as uncomfortable with it as in poorly tailored clothes. In this case, there is a desire to change the name. When choosing a new name, one should not forget, however, that the name is our distinctive sign, a combination of sounds that we immediately recognize and consider to be an integral part of ourselves, our second “I”.

During World War II, many took on a new name - especially those who worked underground or fought in partisan units. Many people, in conditions of danger requiring secrecy and determination, became different personalities and “fused” with a new name. When the war ended, some of them kept these names. Clergymen also have a second, spiritual name, which is what their parishioners call them, but in the family, many of them retain their first name.

You need to be psychologically prepared to accept a new name. In order to change your name, you should prepare yourself for the fact that the new name will be the only one for you, only then will it be able to positively influence you and change your destiny. In this case, it is necessary to completely abandon the name that you bore before.

Actors tend to take pseudonyms for themselves - bright, sonorous, easy to remember. This is dangerous as it can cause mental distress and even lead to thoughts of suicide. But what to do if an artist feels that he has a name that does not suit him or that such a name and surname are interfering with his career? It's good when everything ends well.

If you have chosen the name correctly, then the Birthday Number, Destiny Number, Personality Number, Life Path will form a union of close partnership and mutual assistance. It can also tell you about yourself. When choosing a name, the main thing is to find the right combination of numbers and letters to maximize your ability to be yourself - a person who always, no matter what, wants to create, believe, act. Trust your intuition to tell you what is best for you. Of course, choosing a new name is more productive with the help of a numerologist or astrologer. But if you want, you can figure it out and do it yourself.

When you change your name, you need to consider the following:

1. To achieve success in life, you need to choose the line of vibration in your new name that will create the most favorable conditions for success. It should help you go through life exactly the path that was destined for you, and contribute to the maximum use of your potential in life.


2. With the help of a name, you can understand your life, because its first letter (key) is the foundation that supports the entire structure of the energy line of your name. Of course, you want to get a name that gives you the qualities you dreamed of and contributes to their manifestation. It all depends on the structure of the name. Also, the interaction of your name with your date of birth helps the development of your other abilities.


3. Your karma is embedded in your surname. It contains a set of actions performed by a person in previous lives; the surname influences subsequent fate, so it can be called an instrument of knowledge. It supports you in life and in knowledge. From a numerological point of view, a surname is useful in that it can show what karmic task you need to solve in this life.

Each letter of the alphabet has a property that is unique to it. A certain combination of letters and numbers in a name creates an energy flow, thanks to which the personality of the person for whom it is composed is formed. Therefore, changing your name is of great importance. It's best not to experiment with it until you have the necessary knowledge.

A combination of letters that radically influences the character and destiny of a person. Many people believe in such a miraculous power of the name, and the most risky ones are ready to independently change the code received at birth and forward the data in the passport. What happens in a person’s life after such experiments and why are names like Drevarkh the Enlightened and December Zimnievich needed?

Some people still call her Taya, others are already used to calling her Zhenya. For her, an aikido wrestling coach, these two names are like two different lives. About 20 years ago, having fallen in love with martial arts, Evgenia Yurkina went to study in Japan. And soon I realized: with the name Zhenya on the tatami, the blow was not the right one, and the reaction was rather weak. Whether it's Tai Hanami, which means "flower-like". Returning to Moscow, I changed all my documents. And only the friends got used to the new name when the girl realized: she was not Taya at all, but the very best Zhenya.

Evgenia Yurkina: “I returned to myself, and strangely enough, I began to succeed in some things that I could not do before.”

Having returned her native name, Zhenya immediately fulfilled her dreams: she began skydiving and wrote a book. Taya Hanami was not capable of this.

A name is a kind of code that determines fate: some scientists think so. For example, even if you name inanimate heroes Andrei, Alexander, Sergei and Savely, then one will be crushed from the very first blow, the second will withstand the onslaught of all opponents, the third will split from a sudden draft, and the fourth will be completely forgotten, pushed into a dusty closet.

Axel Borisov from Yekaterinburg decided to change his destiny himself, turning the name Alexey given by his parents into the sonorous and unusual Axel.

Axel Borisov: “Since I changed my name, met my love, changed my apartment, got a dog. I live Axel’s life and I can say that it’s a very unusual life. Alexeys don’t live like that.”

It’s not surprising, experts in the field of number magic comment on the situation in numerology. Using a calculator, they can prove that the same name in combination with different dates of birth will make one person happy, but will make life very difficult for another.

Klara Kuzdenbaeva, numerologist: “In general, if a person is positive, if he knows that this name will bring him good luck and his life will change, this is good, because other energies are triggered here. This is the so-called self-hypnosis, a self-regulation mechanism.”

But 75-year-old Lenina Kurzina doesn’t believe in any numbers. The name was given to her by her mother, the party organizer of the Izhevsk plant, in honor of the leader of the world proletariat.

Lenina Kurzina: “Lenin. At the end there is a letter “a”. Lenina. Lina Evgenievna my whole life they called me. And many did not even know that I was Lenina.”

Such a meaningful name did not bring any surprises to the fate of the Ulyanovsk resident. That’s why Lenina Evgenievna didn’t even try to change him. Unlike many compatriots, whose statements are full of archives of Russian civil registry offices. According to their employees, most often people change dissonant surnames and exotic names to more common ones.

Marina Prozorova, deputy. Head of the Dmitrovsky Department of the Civil Registry Office in Moscow: “There are such surnames that designate some objects, they are already in the nominative case, as a designation of objects. “Chair,” for example, is a surname. And in this case they change it to quite simple ones - Ivanov, Petrov".

However, this hero is not looking for simple ways: the Enlightened Treeman brought all the employees of the registry office, as well as passport offices and traffic police departments of the city of Arkhangelsk, to white heat. Nobody remembers that this man’s name is Andrei Valentinovich Khristoforov. Every year he changes his name 12 times.

December Zimnievich Drevarkh-Enlightened: “If I want, I’m also Mart Vesennevich, and there are also documents for April and June Letnevich.”

At the moment, the Treeman-Enlightened is called Arkhangelsk Vsenizhenovich, which, however, does not surprise either his children - son Posada and daughter Posada, or his wife Alla.

Alla Khristoforova, wife of the Enlightened Treebeard: “Why get confused? When I’m angry, I call him Andryusha. Let him do what he wants. As long as the child doesn’t cry.”

Several times, however, Alla was called to the registry office and asked to bring her husband to reason. But the faithful wife shrugged her shoulders: according to the law, any Russian has the right to change his name, as well as his destiny, as much as he pleases.

Name change. Why do they change the name?

How can I change my name?

Sometimes people change their name to change their life.

People of creative professions use pseudonyms to protect their lives from unwanted curiosity and massive energy invasion.

Going to the monastery, leaving behind their old life, people also take a different name. Occultists(magicians, psychics, healers) take a second, secret name to protect their energy from unwanted influences.

Having decided to change the image, to start a new activity, a person consciously changes his name. Changing your name means a break with the past and the beginning of movement (development) in a new direction.

In other words, a change of name is a change of fate. New name – new destiny.

Sometimes a person does not like his first and last name, he feels constant dissonance. One reason is the conflict between the date of birth and the number of the name. Another reason is the sound wave of the first name, middle name and last name. Either one thing or all together.

All people have associations in connection with a certain name. On a conscious or unconscious level, you like some names and don’t like others. In most cases, people cannot explain why they like or dislike a particular name. That's how they feel.

Associations associated with a name can come from past incarnations. The soul of every person has certain spiritual developments. The soul's experience includes positive or negative programs associated with a name. This can be associated not only with a specific name, but also with a whole egregor of names. For example, with a Muslim or Jewish egregor, or an egregor of some people.

It happens that a person caused a lot of grief to some people in one of his past incarnations. And to atone for his guilt, he is born in a certain country. He is given a first name, patronymic, and last name, which are common in this territory. Life has been difficult for such a person since childhood. And when he becomes an adult, he constantly feels that he is in an environment alien to him. And until he changes his last name, first name, patronymic, until he moves to another country that he likes, he will feel unhappy.

It also happens the other way around. If a person in past incarnations did something good for some people, then by changing his first, patronymic and last name, he receives enormous support from the egregor of this people. His life changes for the better.

There are cases that in a past life a person had an enemy with the last name Ivanov, or with a different last name, and these people ruined each other’s nerves a lot. In this life, a person is born with the surname Ivanov, which he hates, and will not rest until he changes his surname.

Name change. Why do they change the name? How can I change my name?

Attention!

Sites and blogs have appeared on the Internet that are not our official sites, but use our name. Be careful. Fraudsters use our name, our email addresses for their mailings, information from our books and our websites. Using our name, they lure people to various magic forums and deceive (they give advice and recommendations that can harm, or lure money for performing magic rituals, making amulets and teaching magic).

On our websites we do not provide links to magic forums or websites of magic healers. We do not participate in any forums. We do not give consultations over the phone, we do not have time for this.

Note! We do not engage in healing or magic, we do not make or sell talismans and amulets. We do not engage in magical and healing practices at all, we have not offered and do not offer such services.

The only direction of our work is correspondence consultations in written form, training through an esoteric club and writing books.

Sometimes people write to us that they saw information on some websites that we allegedly deceived someone - they took money for healing sessions or making amulets. We officially declare that this is slander and not true. In our entire life, we have never deceived anyone. On the pages of our website, in the club materials, we always write that you need to be an honest, decent person. For us, an honest name is not an empty phrase.

People who write slander about us are guided by the basest motives - envy, greed, they have black souls. The times have come when slander pays well. Now many people are ready to sell their homeland for three kopecks, and it is even easier to slander decent people. People who write slander do not understand that they are seriously worsening their karma, worsening their fate and the fate of their loved ones. It is pointless to talk with such people about conscience and faith in God. They do not believe in God, because a believer will never make a deal with his conscience, will never engage in deception, slander, or fraud.

There are a lot of scammers, pseudo-magicians, charlatans, envious people, people without conscience and honor who are hungry for money. The police and other regulatory authorities have not yet been able to cope with the growing influx of "Deception for profit" madness.

Therefore, please be careful!

Sincerely – Oleg and Valentina Svetovid

Instructions

Wait until you reach adulthood. In accordance with the current legislation of the Russian Federation, a name change is possible only upon reaching the age of 18. From 14 years old - with parental consent. A name change before the age of 14 is carried out only on the initiative of the parents and with the consent of the guardianship authorities. According to the Family Code of the Russian Federation, if parents live separately and the parent with whom the child lives wants to assign his surname to him, the guardianship and trusteeship authority resolves this issue depending on the interests of the child and taking into account the opinion of the other parent. Taking into account the opinion of the other parent is not necessary if it is impossible to establish his whereabouts, deprivation of his parental rights, recognition as incompetent, as well as in cases of evasion without good reason from raising and maintaining the child. If a child is born from persons who are not married to each other, and paternity has not been legally established, the guardianship and trusteeship authority, based on the interests of the child, has the right to allow his surname to be changed to the mother’s surname.

Changing the surname of one of the parents does not entail changing the surname of minor children, but if both parents have changed their surnames (to the same or different ones), then they are required to contact the registry office and change the child’s data to the new surname of one of them. For adult children, changes can only be made with their consent.

Submit an application to the registry office. There are several options here: contact the civil registry office at your place of residence or the civil registry office that issued you a birth certificate. Residents of some regions of the Russian Federation can submit an application through the gosuslugi.ru portal.

In accordance with paragraphs. 4 clause 1 art. 333.26 of the Tax Code of the Russian Federation, the state duty for changing the last name, first name, patronymic is 1000 rubles. Subsequently, you will have to pay an additional 200 rubles for each new civil registration certificate (for a new marriage certificate, etc.).

Obtain a certificate of name change. After 1 month from the date of submission of the application, you will be issued a certificate of name change, which is the basis for replacing your passport and other documents. This period can be increased to 2 months by the head of the civil registry office if there are valid reasons (for example, if copies of civil status records to which changes need to be made have not been received). If you are denied state registration of a name change, the head of the civil registry office must inform you of the reason for the refusal in writing and return the documents you submitted. The certificate of name change contains the following information: full name before and after the change, date and place of birth, citizenship, nationality of the person who changed the name; date of preparation and record number of the act of change of name; place of state registration of name change; date of issue of the certificate of name change.

note

After changing your name, you will definitely need to change other documents: passport, international passport, license, certificate of TIN assignment, work book, pension insurance certificate, compulsory health insurance policy, as well as all pieces of paper confirming ownership of movable and immovable property and so on. An alternative is to present old documents along with a certificate of name change, but in this case, most likely, you will have to explain for a long time each time.
