Researched filing overview
Oklahoma name change petitions are filed as civil actions in district court. The statute requires the petitioner to have lived in Oklahoma, and in the county where the action is filed, for more than 30 days before filing.
The petition must be verified and should state the petitioner’s residence facts, birth information, desired name, reasons for the change, and that the change is not sought for an illegal or fraudulent purpose or to delay or hinder creditors.
Oklahoma generally requires published notice of the petition at least 10 days before the hearing unless the court waives publication for good cause. Confirm current filing, publication, and certified-copy fees with the court clerk before filing.
