I know in the U.S. at least in Ohio, the judge gives you the option to revert back to your maiden name at the time of divorce. If you do not do it at that time then you have to go to the courts and file paper work and do it. Good luck and God bless****

How is this hurting you? And when you decide to get married does that mean that you are divorcing(as you put it) the rest of the family that still has that name? Just so you know it has NOTHING to do with you, and how could it hurt anyone else? She gave up the marriage why not give up the name? It doesn't mean anything anyway, if they are divorced. She maybe feels like the name still ties her to him so if it makes her happy why does it bother you? You should be more concerned about your mom's happiness with her life instead of a personal choice she has made for herself. At her age I think she has the choice to make her own decisions especially personal ones. It seems like you are just looking for excuses to be mad at her for divorcing you dad and if this is the only thing you can find I think you need to stop at look at who is tring to hurt who. You said in your beginning question "what's the point?" The point is it is her choice to make so you could ask also "What's the point in keeping it" If the answer is just to make her kids happy your wrong. If they have been married 32 years and she was unhappy then I would say she has done more than enough for her EX and her kids. Let it be and let HER be happy for a change in whatever discissions she makes.

A woman has the eternal right to her maiden name either when married or after.As long as she has some proof that can be shown as proof of her name, that is a birth certificate for example,she can use that at any time.Also, for business. or any other purpose.The name she was born with remains her ultimate true name throughout her life, no matter what.Example, Hillary Rodham for years was used until she changed it to Clinton.Maria Schreiber does not go by Maria Schwarzenegger.(however the Governor's name is spelled)

I'm not sure what thro depoll is but in order to resume the use of your maiden name in the USA, you must go through the court system....

When I filled out divorce papers, the paralegal "helping" me failed to point out the little box that says "Restore maiden name". Because this was not checked, I had to go back later, pay an extra $125.00 to file an injuction with the court to restore my maiden name. This was in California 7 years ago, don't know what it would cost now, but it was worth it to me.

ITS FREE!!! all you have to do is go tell your bank, your dr and your mates that you are now known as ... and they will get used to it, and address you as that. Deed poll costs and yer dont have to pay!!! if you were registered at your gp surgery when you went by your previous name you'll have no problems unless you have a pit bull of a receptionist. For the purpose of a passport you need a declaration from someone considered trustworthy such as dr or lecturer. Doesn't have to cost a gnat's fart. Unless you're up to something dodgy it's all kosher.

You can either go via deed poll or more commonly now you can make a statutory declaration. Ask the solicitor that handled your divorce to do it for you because it's not very expensive and most solicitors aren't that interested if you're not having other work done.

As long as you are not using a particular name for the purposes of fraud, you can go by whatever name you choose. So, as long as you make everyone who matters (family, friends, Revenue, Social Security, banks etc) the name you wish to be known by... i.e. your maiden name, it shouldn't be a problem.

It was always your name so why pay some solicitor to tell other people just that? I just reverted to my surname and life went on and is still going on. Good luck
