Researched filing overview

Wyoming Adult Name Change Filing Overview

Residency and venue
you must have actually lived in Wyoming for at least the six months before filing (§ 1-25-102). The verified petition (NCA 06) is filed with the clerk of the district court in the county where you live; it states your current name, the new name, your birth facts, and the reason, and the court may grant any proper change that is not detrimental to anyone else (§ 1-25-101).
Public notice
Wyoming requires notice of the petition to be published in a local newspaper — the packet implements this as the Notice by Publication (NCA 10), published once a week for four consecutive weeks. If publicity would endanger you (for example as a victim of domestic abuse), the packet’s confidentiality track (NCA 07/08/09) asks the court to seal your address and excuse publication (§ 1-25-103).
Hearing and order
after publication completes, the Request to Set Hearing (NCA 11) and Notice of Hearing (NCA 12) move the case forward; the judge signs the Order on Name Change (NCA 13). The Vital Statistics Form (NCA 15) goes to the Wyoming Department of Health so a Wyoming birth certificate can be amended.
Verified against Wyoming Statutes §§ 1-25-101 to 1-25-104 and the Wyoming Judicial Branch self-help packet NCA 01–15 (forms revised November 2025, packet December 2025; downloaded 2026-08-18). Sources: Wyoming Judicial Branch — Adult Name Change ; Wyoming Statutes Title 1, Chapter 25

PETITION AND AFFIDAVIT FOR CHANGE OF NAME OF AN ADULT (NCA Form 06). The official Wyoming Judicial Branch petition that opens an adult name-change case in the district court of the county where you live.

Caption: the State of Wyoming, your county, the judicial district, and the case number the clerk assigns.

Petitioner facts: your current legal name, birthplace, the new name you are asking for, your reasons, and the declaration that the change will not harm anyone else.

Safety off-ramp: if publicity could endanger you, the packet's confidentiality forms (NCA 07/08/09) can seal your address and excuse publication.

The full packet also includes the court's own NCA 01–05 instructions, the Notice by Publication (NCA 10), hearing forms (NCA 11/12), the Order on Name Change (NCA 13), and the vital-records application (NCA 15) — behind a PublicLegal filing guide and printable checklist.

This outline is not the form itself. Your download includes the complete PDF packet.

Frequently Asked Questions About Wyoming Adult Name Change Forms

Yes. This product is the Wyoming adult name change packet tied to this state-specific page and the packet documents shown above.

The included packet documents are listed on this page. Where the same document is provided in more than one format, it is grouped once with Word, PDF, or other format badges.

This packet currently includes print-ready PDF format. The document list above reflects the packet contents for this state without exposing internal fulfillment filenames.

Complete the petition and related court documents, then file them with the appropriate court. Court filing fees and local procedures vary by county.

These forms are designed for self-help use, but ILRG does not provide legal advice. Consult a licensed attorney if your situation involves unusual facts, contested issues, or questions about local procedure.

Timing depends on the court, local scheduling, notice requirements, and whether anyone objects. Many name change matters take several weeks, but local timing can vary.

Possibly. Some states impose additional notice, waiting period, or disclosure requirements for certain convictions. Review local rules or consult an attorney if this applies to you.

No. ILRG provides self-help legal forms and information, not legal advice. You are responsible for reviewing local court requirements before filing.

The notice is published once a week for four consecutive weeks in a local newspaper. File first — the publication step comes after the petition is on file.

Yes. A victim of domestic abuse can ask the court for confidentiality with the packet’s motion, affidavit, and order forms (NCA 07–09); if granted, the address is sealed and publication is excused.

No. Wyoming has no fingerprint or background-check requirement for a name-change petition — the court decides on the verified petition, the residency, and whether the change is proper and not detrimental.

Usually yes — a marriage certificate, or a divorce decree that restores a former name, is accepted by most agencies without a separate petition. Use this packet when you want a name that is not on either document.
