Hi, can anyone help here?

I'm trying to change my married surname back to my maiden name on Facebook. FB seems to have a problem with this.

Admittedly my maiden name is strange, but it's certainly in no way offensive!

Everyone says "just click edit" but this doesn't work for me, because "facebook takes this seriously and all names should be real"...........Well it is bloody real mr facebook!

Any ideas? I've searched for a "contact us" button to no avail, and I really want to get rid of the married name. Help!

Thanks Buenchico, but as I read it there is no way to address this problem from that page. They think my maiden name is weird. I disagree.
When I see posts coming up from very offensive user names I just wonder what is going on!

Thanks Mamyalynne. That's great, but it needs me to upload a copy of my government-issued photo ID! I don't have one of those! lol
Me neither, what a pain.

Found a way around it. Put a NOT before my name and they accepted that. Weird. Much less real than my given name, but it works!
