1. The change in name would require you to follow a long drawn process to get his new name incorporated in the documents. If you have chosen a new name already then make a gazette publication and follow it up with a newspaper publication in a regional and national daily. The same procedure is to be followed even if you want to merely insert a middle name.

2. Birth certificate is issued only once irrespective of how many times the name is changed.

You cannot change baby name and seek issue of new birth certificate

2) you can apply for rectification of birth certificate to add middle name of child

We had our first child in March and my wife and I agreed on a name and got the birth certificate. We also got a passport for the baby.

Subsequently we have decided to change the name due to some family and personal considerations. Both parents in agreement of the new name. Can you please advise on the right procedure

You can first prepare an affidavit for change of name of yor child, get it notarised and then file a petition to concerned government press for getting the name change published in government gazette and keep the copy with the other certificates to effect the name change.

1. Is there no way of getting a new birth certificate issued? The birth certificate is required for school admissions and if that is not changed it might cause confusion.

If the name has been registered with the birth registration authorities, then you have nothing to insist the authorities to change the name n the birth register

2. What if the only change we want is insertion of a middle name? We had kept only a first and last name for the child and now want to add a middle name.

Inserting any name in between and getting a new birth certificate in this regard may not be feasible.
