I'm a US Citizen, and am about to have my name legally changed in the US. I still live in the US and intend on moving to Canada in the future. Does anyone know if a name change certificate from the US would be legally recognized in Canada, and be sufficient for updating my name on all my Canadian documents? Or do I need to follow a certain procedure to have my name legally changed in Canada?
 
A name change court order from the U.S. should be fine.
