Where does one go to change their name?
Usually the clerk's office where you live at the time. Which is very frequently a different clerk's office from the one that has your birth certificate. Which means that in addition to not being able to provide you with a copy of your birth certificate, it also means that they are often not going to be in a position to help you reconcile the fact that your current legal name no longer matches your birth certificate.
