eBay's steps

My eBay, Account, Personal information, Edit. Sellers: your eBay name has to match the bank account you get paid into, so update the bank first.

Open eBay's page

Have these ready

A copy of your marriage certificate, divorce decree or court order (most companies ask for one).
Your updated driver's license or ID, if you have it. Social Security comes first, then the DMV.
Your account number, and the name the account is in now.

Let Sasha handle the letters

Sasha writes and signs your name change letter for eBay and every other company on your list, with your certificate attached. It also keeps track of who's done. The checklist is free.
