I think you need to be specific, busyanna/anna castro as no one can give you advice if we're not quite sure what you're trying to do.

LIke for example jenny ventura to joanna reyes.
Documents also different but same person.
Someone needs help on what to do to correct and what consequences she is facing when she try to
use the correct name. I would appreciate legal advices on this matter...
thanks

? get a lawyer to do it right and there are no consequences, you will pay for and get a deed poll with your new legal name.

what about change the name because of the marriage? Does the spouse need to go a lawyer? Or just bring the marriage certificate to the embassay/ immigration dept?

Becs, no need to go to a lawyer. You need to first effect the name change through your embassy. Then go to the Immigration Dept to change it on your HK ID.

Yes, you can change your name in HK. If you are a non HK person as stated above you need to get your own country to sort out first, rules vary, then inform immigration of the name change. What you can't do is have a different identity deliberately in an attempt to deceive ie if expelled from HK try to come back as a 'different' person or to try to avoid paying off a loan - serious problems if caught trying to do that. Of course if there was originally a decipt then changing to the 'real' name raises questions...
