VERIFIED PETITION FOR CHANGE OF NAME OF MINOR — PublicLegal-authored to 12 O.S. §§ 1631–1632 and Application of Tubbs (1980 OK 177). The petition a parent, legal guardian, or next friend files in the District Court of the Oklahoma county where the child lives.
Caption: In re the change of name of the child, a minor — State of Oklahoma, the child's county, with the case number the clerk assigns.
What it asks: the child's current and requested names, birth facts and certificate number (§ 1632), the petitioner's standing (parent, guardian, or next friend), the other-parent notice path (consent filed, personal service, or no other legal parent), the reasons, and the good-faith recitals — with the integrated notarized verification.
The full packet opens with the PublicLegal filing guide whose last page is a printable checklist, then the optional other-parent consent and waiver, the notice of hearing with certificate of service, and the proposed order. Editable Word set included. Only the petition page is shown here — the full packet downloads after checkout. The clerk's Civil Cover Sheet is free at oscn.net.

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.
Oklahoma law allows a minor name change action to be brought by a guardian or next friend.
No — but the other parent must receive due-process notice, and a court hearing is held. A cooperating parent can sign the notarized consent and waiver included in this packet; a parent who will not sign must be personally served, and the judge decides any objection.
Oklahoma generally requires notice of the petition to be published once at least 10 days before the hearing, unless the court waives publication for good cause.
