My question involves name change laws in the State of: New York, Westchester County

My husband and I jointly requested a name change for our minor child (adding a second middle name) in Westchester County, NY to the Supreme Court of New York. The request was denied (reason unclear - the judges clerk promised to get back to me and never did).

We would like to repetition the court to change the name again. However the standard name change forms clearly ask if a previous application has been made and therefore we can't use the standard name change form.

What form should we use? Do we have to get an attorney?
Thank you in advance.
