    On the blue facebook bar, hover over 'Settings' & drop down to select 'Account settings'. On the next page, click on the "Change" link next to Name. Highlight your surname & overtype with your new one. Click on 'Change Name'. You might also want to add your full former name in on this page as well. It won't appear on your page but it will allow people to search for you who might not know that you have got married/changed your surname. Hope that serve you, regards!
