You can now call me Lisa Maria ! :-D

Wow how quick is that service!
I filled in on line, with the UK deed poll service, my name change at around 00.30 AM after chatting to Caroline late Friday night.
Despite the wine all my spelling was correct!
I couldn’t believe it when I got home tonight (after the lovely electrocution of some of my facial hair) and a large envelope was waiting for me. I opened it and it was the printed deed poll forms ready for signing and witnessing.
I took them around to our next door neighbours and they signed them for me after witnessing me sign it (This is the first time I have signed with my proper name and it felt great lol). An hour later after a good chat with them I came back home and put them in the return envelope ready for returning tomorrow to them.
They will then print me 6 certified copies and send me it back with the copies. Hopefully before the weekend.
Then over to me to start changing some of my documentation. :-D
So I guess officially from now as I have executed the deed poll by signing and having it witnessed,
My new title is Ms and my name is Lisa Maria xxxxxxxxxxxx
Ms Lisa Maria xxxxxxxxxxxxx has a lovely ring to it !! (Apart from the all the X’s!)

Hello Lisa Maria:

Goodness what a nice middle name. Was that ever easier than what we have to do to change our name. Lots of $$$ and time. But I did it myself without a lawyer and it cost me probable $150. for court cost and newspaper ad. total.

Congratulations! That's uncommonly fast work from British bureaucracy.

I quite like all the kisses in the name though it was not the one I thought you would use.
