No. .. The name change will be legalized by the court and the credit score updated to show both your old and new names ... sorry, but if it were that easy, everyone just change the names instead of bankruptcy or other methods.
Just so you know ... from a site Deed Poll:
With a Deed Poll, you can change your first name and / or surname, add names, remove names or rearrange your existing names. You can change your name at any time and for any reason it is not to deceive or defraud or evade an obligation.
Using a name change to avoid being tied to your credit report would be considered a fraud.
No name change will not restart your credit score.
this is not the name that counts, your Social Security number is what tells who you are. Remember that we are all just numbers here ...
