<html><head><meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"></head><body style="word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; line-break: after-white-space;" class="">Hi Wendy,<div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">This is an interesting question. My first thought is that wouldn’t a person want the paper trail of their original birth certificate combined with the order that shows their birth name and their changed name? I would just advise them to keep a copy of the order with their birth certificate and view them as a set. If you change a name for someone in WA, do you have them change their birth certificate also? I have done a handful of name changes, but never advised them to change their birth certificate - though I confess it never crossed my mind, because I thought of a birth certificate as a document that represents the reality at the time of birth. To apply for a passport, for example, I would expect the original birth certificate plus the court order would be sufficient. I am curious if others think differently.</div><div class=""><br class=""><div class="">
