APPLICATION FOR CHANGE OF NAME FOR A MINOR CHILD (CVNCM11F, rev. 01/01/2023) — official Arizona Judicial Branch statewide form under A.R.S. § 12-601(B). Filed by a parent, guardian ad litem, or next friend in the Superior Court of the county where the child lives.
Caption: Superior Court of Arizona in the child's county — with the case number the clerk assigns.
What it asks: the child's birth-record and current names, the requested new name and reasons, and the § 12-601(C) statements — signed before a notary under penalty of perjury; the judge decides the child's best interests.
The full packet also includes the child's own Consent of Minor to Name Change (CVNC13F, for minors 14 or older), the other parent's Consent and Waiver of Notice (CVNC17F), the Notice of Hearing (CVNC18F), the Affidavit of Service by Certified Mail (CVNC24F), and the Order Changing Name of Minor (CVNCM81F) — behind a PublicLegal filing guide and printable checklist.

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.
A parent or guardian can usually file a minor name change petition, but notice to or consent from the other parent may be required. Requirements vary by state and county.
No. ILRG provides self-help legal forms and information, not legal advice. You are responsible for reviewing local court requirements before filing.
No hard veto: the other parent signs the consent-and-waiver (CVNC17F) when they agree, or is served with the Notice of Hearing (CVNC18F) and can object — courts require that notice in practice. The judge decides the child’s best interests either way.
A child 14 or older signs the Consent of Minor to Name Change (CVNC13F) — the court’s own form list describes it for minors 14+. The statute sets no age; for a younger child, include it if the judge expects it.
Yes — the statewide Arizona Judicial Branch self-service set (azcourts.gov), revision-verified 2026-08-19. Blank forms are free there; counties may prefer their own versions, so confirm with your clerk.
No automatic publication — the court may order notice by publication or by service only if it deems it proper (A.R.S. § 12-602(A)).
