I've recently changed my first name. Can I correct my marriage certificate, so it would have my current first name? I got married in NYC.

In the City named after the state, NY, NY, this is the agency you would contact to make changes on your marriage certificate:

City Clerk's Office - Amendments to Marriage Records

The link addresses SURNAME changes, but I suspect it oud work the same for given names, too.

Ask, and Ye shall learn.
