I got married two months ago and want to use my maiden name as
my middle name and my husband's last name.

the NJ Division of Motor Vehicles won't let me do it.  It is
their "policy" that I would have to have a legal name change.
However, I know several women who did it without any problems.
Does anyone know what I can do?

Example:  Mary Ann Smith becomes Mary Smith Jones
