What: The Mooseyard Ch-Ch-Changes app will help you track the steps you need to take for getting the court order (if needed), which parts are dependent on others, where you need to make the name change, deadlines if applicable, and will show your progress along the way.
Why: I've gone through multiple name changes. My spouse has gone through one. It's never fun, no matter who's doing it, or why.
