4. Fun names
Some people like the idea of having a ‘fun name’. In the past we’ve issued Deed Polls for fun names such as Mr Her Majesty The Queen, Captain Fantastic Faster Than Superman Batman Wolverine Hulk And The Flash Combined and Mrs I Hate Thomas Cook to name but a few.
Visit our media page to see newspaper reports on some of the more unusual and bizarre name changes we’ve been asked to carry out by Deed Poll over the past few years!
Note: If you are considering changing your name to a fun name and belong to a professional body, please first check to see if they will permit you to register your new name with them.
Also, if you are considering changing your name to a fun name, please read sections 5 and 6 below.
