I read this yesterday after your recent zoom session and deduced that the enrolled deed poll although nice to have isn’t really worth doing when a deed poll will suffice. In fact my main concern was my address being public. As far as I can tell, as long as it’s accepted by all governing agencies, a deed poll (not enrolled) will suffice for the purposes of which we are intending it to be used. As you mentioned in your zoom session, enrolling means the Royal courts notify all governing agencies for you but I contest that is this beneficially in the long run? For me personally as long as the deed poll (not enrolled) is valid one can choose to inform or not. This surely gives us the advantage no?

To add to my previous comment. It would be worth doing the deed poll as it only takes 3-5 days and then apply for enrolled deed poll. At least this way you can start notifying with deed poll.

There is no law requring a person to have a surname. It states in that document. So Enrolled deedpoll can be done without filling in a surname?

read the section =========== makes perfect sense The disadvantages of enrolling a deed poll are: The process of enrolling a deed poll is slow, time-consuming, and complex You only get one (original) copy of the deed poll (you can make certified copies of the deed poll, but you’d need to pay a solicitor / notary public to do this for you) You have to pay court fees, of currently £ 42.44 You have to pay another fee (to a solicitor / notary public) to have some of the documents witnessed If your solicitor prepares the paperwork for you, you have to pay the solicitor’s own fees The details of your change of name are permanently published on the public record (and on the internet) along with your home address If you’re married (or in a civil partnership), you must have your spouse’s consent to change your name, which may be a difficulty if you’re already separated You need a home owner (who knows you) to make a statutory declaration (in front of a solicitor / notary public) saying that they have known you for at least 10 years After 5 years, your deed poll will be sent to the National Archives in Kew, and if you want to have a certified copy of it, you’d need to go in person to the National Archives, and pay a fee of £ 25 What is the point of enrolling your deed poll? Your legal name is a matter of fact . Your legal name is simply the name that you are generally known by, and this has been upheld many times by the courts, going back hundreds of years. People have changed their names (both their given names and their surnames) since ancient times without the need for any document (deed poll or otherwise) and without permission from any authority. To establish a change of name, it simply needs to be true that — you’ve genuinely change your name in good faith (bona fide ) you’ve publicly assumed your new name there is no fraudulent reason for the change of name

Details are permanently published on the public record. This stands out!

Also one original copy. I’m starting to understand why enrolled is needed. It’s lawful not legal.
