Saw these actors and their original names. How do they get their names changed? i know you register with an actors guild, but what names go on your license or tax records?

When I joined SAG and AFTRA I could not register my "real name" because another actor had already registered it.

I use my real name in day-to-day life. I just can't use it with anything related to acting. Passport, Drivers License are in my "real name."

When I do temp work, or, have a "regular job," I use my real name.

You know, its not necessaily truth.
Actors may have a "stage name". this name is given because sometimes their real names may be hard to remember, not catchy enough, or may not appeal.
Therefore they will have a stage name.
However that name is not a LEGAL name. its only used in the circuit.
everything else is with his.her REAL name. the only other option is to officially get a name change

No, they just change the names for their careers sake, but real names remains the same for legal purposes. Maybe they can register their artistic name so that no one can take it again.

The decide has a Christian-centric definition on the call "Messiah". i think of he could order a attractiveness exchange too if a Spanish-conversing family contributors needed to call their youngster "Jesús", and he could say - there is purely one Jesus! additionally, why does not he order a attractiveness exchange for all of the white little ones named "Joshua"? that's the Anglo equivalent of the call "Jesus".

no, it doesn't change your legal name.

it's only a name to use for work. you have to go to court to legally change your name.
