When a person takes on a new name that is different from their name at the time of birth, marriage or adoption, she/he is said to have changed their name. Adopting a new name is not as simple as just simply taking on a new name and changing the previous name to the new one from the following day! Rather it is a legal process that requires one to follow a systematic and streamlined process and then rechristen selves. Anyone can adopt a name that they desire but only after completing all the legal formalities for the same.

One of the important steps in this regard is publishing the name change act in a newspaper. These newspaper announcements are like public notices that are meant to inform the public at large and whose copies are to be presented to the concerned government authorities as and when asked by them. People who take on a new name and want to do away with their previous name are require to publish such notices in the newspapers. Also, women who are married and want to add their husband’s surname after their maiden name are also supposed to complete such formalities or else their name change act will be considered illegal and will be liable for punishment as charges of faking identity will be imposed on all such people.

Along with newspaper post, you are also required to produce an affidavit stating that you have changed your name and the reason for the same as many news chronicles ask for such a proof.

As far as the newspaper is concerned, you can select any news journal of your choice. If you have a humble budget you can go for a regional or a local newspaper as the ad space in such papers will be lesser when compared with the national dailies. If budget is not a constraint for you then you can go for a daily newspaper with PAN India circulation. One such paper which is quite famous is Navbharat Times. You can post Navbharat Times name change ads for a PAN India reach.

Change of name ads in newspaper serve the purpose of bringing to the notice of common people any rechristening process by any individual. It is meant to avoid any fraudulent activity or faking of identity by anti-social people who wish to harm the society by taking on a fictitious identity.
