Name change in SC

[Guest]

My son is 18 and would like to change the spelling of his first name as well as take on his stepfathers last name. What forms are needed to make these changes?

Here's a link describing how to change your name in Spartanburg County.

I'm sure if you Google "name change YOUR COUNTY SC", a link useful in your county will appear.

Well the minimum age to change the name by Deed poll is 16 years. Now your child is adult, you have to put a petition in the court to change the name of your son.
