I have a similar problem except the last name on my birth certificate was not changed to the name I have been going by the last 23 years. I was adopted by my step-dad at age 2 and he was changed as my father on my birth certificate, but my last name is still my mother's maiden name on the birth certificate. I have been going by his last name my whole life...I have my driver's license with his last name...gotten jobs with that name and etc...I am now married and have yet to change my last name because I'm not completely positive of proving that my name is my name...I have no idea what to do if someone can help out...Also, I would have posted this as a new thread, but I cannot find the button anywhere and all I can do is read and respond to existing ones.
