    There’s a huge push for news posting in the UK as well, it turns out a lot of the guidance for legal name changing is completely false and kind of predatory. You don’t have to pay for officiation, you don’t have to publicly announce any private details, in fact only a select few organisations in the UK are allowed to access the link between your name and deadname, same with gender markers. But most sites want you to pay, including gov.uk, and there is a lot of false advice.
