Child deed poll: change spelling of name (England) - what to do?
I am considering changing the SPELLING of my child’s name.
Example:
From: Saraah
To: Sarah
Literally removing one duplicated A in the name.

Please can I get advice on what to do, and material impacts to the child’s life if any? All advice is welcome.
Summary:
- child is 2 years old.
- no bank account. ❌
- no school/nursery. ❌
- both parents agree. ✅
- has UK passport. ✅
Thank you.
