Yeah, it’s definitely an annoying process (though much easier than most other U.S. states). Luckily, you only have to file the papers in court. You don’t actually have to show up to a hearing unless someone objects with good cause (meaning they think you’re changing your name for fraudulent reasons). The main problem is the extremely high $435 filing fee and $40.50 for every certified copy (you need three, so $121.50).
No, you!! :3
