If you and the other parent of this child do not agree on the name change, I think it's up to the judge. You should expect a hearing where you tell why this name change would benefit the child and the other parent will give reasons why not. Here is the web address of some instructions and sample forms for the name change process for one Georgia Superior Court. The process in any other Superior Court should be about the same. www...........forsythco.com/pdf/files/Name%20Change%20Packet.pdf
