Hi I am really confused what to do about my name. We have just completed mediation and are awaiting our memorandum of understanding. We will then put through solicitors each. I am desperate emotionally to change my name and move on as feel this is really significant(so annoying the woman has to do this!) but should I wait til the divorce come through or change by deed poll and do it now? is there anything I havent thought of that this might affect?? The other complication is that my passport is up for renewal and I cant go abroad so the decision is whether to change name by deed poll and then do passport but other things will be still in my married name so I risk complicating everything/adding admin and cost when I am already super overwhelmed and no money...also we havent filed for divorce yet - when should we do this?? I dont want to divorce without agreeing financials but I also want to get it done and I know it takes a long time. Thank you!
