I Want To Change My Surname To My Mother's Name. Pls Help!! by Maddict1: 10:37pm On Jun 04, 2022 |
Good Evening my Ogas and Madams in the house. I'm looking towards changing my surname to both my mother's name and a random name combined together. I am currently bearing that of my dad who was a deadbeat till his death and I don't see why I or my unborn children should solely take his name and write off the woman who toiled hard to bring us up, it's unfair to her in my opinion. I already know the steps to take. Court Affidavit - Newspaper publication - Nin/Bvn. I'm sha confused on the Nin/Bvn part cos I read somewhere that NIMC usually asks you to change it on your BVN first before coming to them and Banks on the other hand will ask you to go change it on your NIN first before they'll effect the change on your BVN, pls is this still a thing? How do I resolve it? Also, I'm currently in my 3rd year in the University, will this affect me in any way? Do I have to go to NECO office to effect the change too? I'm grateful for your inputs in advance 1 Like |

Don't bother changing your surname now, wait till you get married so you can change it to your wife's surname. 23 Likes 1 Share |

Zonefree: I really do not know why some men are triggered by posts like this, your egos are so fragile. What's actually wrong with OP taking his mother's name now? I no even blame una sef, I blame the women who have enabled this gutter behaviour. You don't just up and dump your family who have and are still looking after you cos you married a man! I know you really didn't dump them persay but haba na, you're practically letting a man define you, don't get me wrong here, you can include your husband's name if you want but doing away with your family name entirely is what I really don't get. If I eventually get married, my partner is expected to retain their surnames, our kids are definitely going to bear both our family names combined, no be only man dey get pikin. 29 Likes |

Runsboi: That's one thing I have always wondlered about since childhood. Some of the women throwing away their father's names to answer husband's name are even the ones footing bills and feeding their families. @Op, I commend the decision you made to honour your mother like this. I wish I knew correct methods of doing the change of surname but unfortunately I don't. I hope you find the info you need soon. Good luck 15 Likes |

CHoccolaTE: I'm telling you, I'm still in awe of how fast they do that, whilst researching on topic, the few threads I stumbled on relating to it were of women who were looking to change their surnames to their husband's. Some even just got married a day before oo! And I was like what's with this craze to change your surname so fast? Na so your husband good reach? Is he better than the people who have been looking after you all these while? And thanks for understanding. 3 Likes |

Maddict1: OK I have read your response You have the right to bear your father's name or your mother's name as the case may be Now if you want to bear both parents surname, you have to identify exactly which family you want to belong for life If you want to be identified with your mums family, good and fine, his sibblings will have to be informed officially and they will embrace and welcome you by adopting you into the family By doing so, you bear their names, have inheritance with them and have a share or assets and liabilities of the family And you will settle down in their family as your original root When you marry you bring her their she settles their have her kids their and they are part of the kindred of that family and that's how uoir own generations will go along and follow suit, whether you are still alive or not a They will have to swore and affidavit and newspaper publication to that and you are now identified with them ab their son and brother But if you know that you will return to your father's family at the end of the day, keep the name and don't change it. Left for me, having understood your mind, I think you should go along yuoir mum family, if they will accept you as their son and brother After all these are done, then you will use those documents to have a change of surname in national ID and international passport As for uoir school, wait until you graduate before effecting any change . The reason being that uoir mother families will seat and have several meetings before they will come to conclusion I wish you good luck 1 Like |

frozen70: What in the garbage is this reply? I'm still looking for where the OP asked for your opinion on whether to change or not. Someone is asking for steps to take, you are there talking gibberish. What does mother family accepting you,swearing affidavit father family, holding meeting, inheritance have to do with what he's saying? He been tell you say dem reject am before? The only thing you said here that made small sense is your last paragraph, every other thing na ashiashi 9 Likes 1 Share |

frozen70: Sir, one can. One can actually wake up and decide to change their surname after considerate thinking. One does not need a family meeting, a written letter or any acceptance. Not everyone is the related-by-blood advocate, nor be everybody dey fight for inheritance, I am definitely not interested in their properties or their acceptance, what's my business with the family at large? na my mama name I wan bear, she accepts me even without a question, I be her own, her family also know say I be my mama pikin so what are you actually saying? Even if I'm interested in inheriting anything sef, my mama property no be my own? besides I'm from Urhobo and our culture doesn't discriminate, dia pikin na dia pikin whether na dia son or dia daughter born am, na dia own. So respectully stop die that family meeting and family affidavit matter. I want to say a lot but I can't type anymore Thank you. 2 Likes |
