A question about I-751 name change

Hi, I have a question about filing my I-751. In my conditional GC, I still have my maiden name. The reason was because I didnt know you could just change it to your married name on the initial GC application. Which I have to hear my husbands mouth for almost 2 years now about that!! Now, can I just file my I-751 with my married name, so that itll show in my permanent GC? Any input will be appreciated, thanks!

Now, can I just file my I-751 with my married name, so that itll show in my permanent GC? as far as I know - no. You can do it when you file for your citizenship in a year.

really? hmmm any other input maybe? Cuz I soo want to change my name...

really? hmmm any other input maybe? Cuz I soo want to change my name... LucyMO is right... you can not change it in the I-751. You had to do it when you first got married and before you applied for AOS... now you have to wait until citizenship. What is the rush anyways?
