So we just met with the celebrant for the wedding to fill out the paper work.
Last year i changed my name with BDM to my stepdads surname. I did this so that his biological dads name wouldn''t be on DD's birth cert or my wedding cert. As it turns out....on the wedding cert, my biologicals dads details still have to be there.
The whole point of changing of name was so I didn't have to have any links to him!!!!!

So if I can only change my name on things like my passport and medicare whats the point in changing it so it shows on things that matter...eg my marriage certificate!?!?!? (yes i know passports etc matter, but i'm sure you know what i mean )
