London and Middlesex / Re: Are there records for deed poll name changes?
« on: Wednesday 08 September 21 23:32 BST (UK)  »
Hi, I found a family member of mine listed in the London Gazette  http://www.london-gazette.co.uk/search for the purpose of a change of name. More recently I know that enrolled deed polls are registered at the Royal Courts of justice. The UK Deed Poll Service https://www.changemyname.org.ukmaintains an archive of historic and more recent deed polls also.

The Common Room / Re: CHANGING NAMES! What do you think?

I changed my name by unenrolled deed poll with the UK Deed Poll Service. There isn’t a central register, other than for enrolled deed polls with the Royal Courts of Justice.

The organisation I used, linked here https://www.changemyname.org.uk maintains their own register of deeds, however I imagine with GDPR etc it would never be of any use to the ancestry and genealogy community in the future.
