ERICKSTAD, Chief Justice.
Dennis H.F. Mees appeals from an order of the District Court for the South Central Judicial District which denied his petition for a change of name. We reverse and remand with instructions.
On July 16, 1990, Mees published his intent to change his name in the Bismarck Tribune. On July 18, 1990, Mees filed a Petition for Change of Name accompanied by an Affidavit in Support of the Petition for Change of Name and an Affidavit of Publication.1 It appears that Mees has *173complied with all of the procedural requirements of a statutory name change. See § 32-28-02, N.D.C.C.2
