I want to add two middle names to my name. Can I do that?

Yes, you can add however many names you like to your name.  You need to get a deed poll. However, you should be aware that HM Passport Office can only print a maximum of 30 characters as your Christian name (and this includes your middle names), and a maximum of 30 characters as your surname. 

If your new Christian name and middle names exceed the limit, you should request that they add an abbreviated form in the main part of your new passport, and that they print the names in their entirety on the observations page.

 

The UK Deed Poll Office is not a government agency. Our function is purely as a document provider for the self-declaration of an unenrolled deed poll. We are here to assist in your name change journey, as we have done for over 100,000 UK residents.
