The age requirement to change your surname varies by country and state. In the United States, it is typically 18 years old without parental consent. Minors may be able to change their surname with parental or guardian approval and a court order. It is advisable to check the specific regulations in your local area.

Can you adopt and not change the child's last name?

It is not legally required to change your surname once you have been adopted. It is usually up to the adoptee if they want to change their surname. At least, that was the case with me, I was adopted at the age of 7 and my adoptive parents asked me if I wanted to keep my name or change it. I, of course, changed it.
