Arizona Order Changing Name For a Minor is a court order that allows a minor to legally change their name. There are two types of Arizona Orders Changing Name For a Minor. The first is a regular name change, which is an uncontested name change for a minor where both parents consent to the name change. The second is an uncontested name change for a minor where only one parent is involved in the name change process and the other parent has signed a waiver or release of parental rights. In both cases, the court must be satisfied that the name change is in the best interest of the minor. The court will also require the minor to appear in court for a hearing before a judge to answer questions and explain the reasons for the name change. Once the court has approved the name change, a certified copy of the order will be issued and the new name will be added to the minor's official birth certificate.
