ANN ARBOR, Mich. - Michimich -- Thinking about changing your name? You're not alone. Many people choose a new name for various reasons, from personal preference to reflecting a new identity after a life change.

In Michigan, the process typically takes 4-6 months and varies slightly depending on your county. Here's a quick overview:
  • It's a Multi-Step Process: Expect fees, filing a petition with the court, a background check, a hearing, and fingerprinting.
  • Court Approval is Needed: A judge ensures your name change isn't fraudulent (avoiding debts or criminal history).
  • Birth Certificate Update: Legal name change doesn't update your birth certificate. A separate application to Michigan DHHS is required.
