Changing Username after getting MArried

Hello,

I have a few users who recently got married and was wondering about the name
chnage issue. Does anyone have a thorough procedure on it this works? Or is
it that easy as to right click and choose rename?
What else needs to be done after name is changed?

Thank you in advance,
Mike

Just rename them, no problem at all. As long as their login remains the
same, the change will not affect their work.

I have usually just gone into the ADUC, select he user account object, right click, select Rename and make the necessary changes.

You might want to also make sure that their e-mail address changes appropriately.
