i wanna change my name coz my original was mispelt and nid to get bck my name. I have a buddy who changed his as in he did it just to drop his baptism name because he felt that having an English name was kasumba ya ukoloni. Anyways,the process took long but apparently what they give you is a document showing that you are the same person as appears on all other documents...

In other words, get a lawyer to do one for you. And yeah, I believe you can change your names completely e.g. from Francis Wanjohi to Farah Mo Maalim, etc.
