There are some legal steps and procedures that you need to follow to change your name or correct your existing name as a government servant in Karnataka. Here are some of them:

• You need to make an application to your appointing authority in triplicate, indicating the reasons for changing or correcting your name and requesting for permission to do so. You need to specify in block letters your present name and the name you desire to assume. You also need to furnish particulars relating to your ordinary place of residence and the places, if any, where you own immovable property.
• You need to pay a fee of Rs. 15 under the budget head “XLV, Printing and Stationery, Fees for changing the name” and attach a treasury/bank challan with your application.
• Your appointing authority will grant you permission after making such enquiry as it may consider necessary. Permission will not be refused unless there are reasons to believe that the change or correction of name is calculated to deceive or to inflict pecuniary loss.
• If permission is granted, your appointing authority will forward a notification in Form-I appended to the Karnataka Government Servants (Procedure for Change of Names) Rules, 1967 to the Director of Printing and Stationery in Karnataka. The notification will be published in the Karnataka Gazette and you will receive five copies of it from your appointing authority.
• You also need to make an affidavit before a judicial magistrate, stating your present name and the name you want to assume, along with the reasons for changing or correcting your name. You need to publish a newspaper advertisement announcing your change or correction of name in two local newspapers, one in English and one in Kannada.
• You need to update your Aadhar card, PAN card, bank accounts, service records, etc. with your new or corrected name. You also need to inform the relevant authorities such as the income tax department, passport office, etc. about your change or correction of name.
• You do not need to change or correct your certificates, diplomas, degrees, etc. that you obtained before changing or correcting your name. However, you need to file copies of the notification and the affidavit evidencing your change or correction of name in your service record.

You can prepare a name change affidavit,  get it notarized and get the affidavit published in local newspaper.

After that you can get it published in the government Gazette publication and then with the copy of Gazette publication you can apply for name change in your employment or service records. 

To change or correct your name as a government servant in Karnataka, you will need to follow certain legal procedures. Here are the general steps you can take:

Prepare Affidavit: Draft an affidavit stating the reason for the name change or correction. This affidavit should be on a non-judicial stamp paper of the prescribed value. You may need to consult a local lawyer to ensure the correct format and content.

Newspaper Publication: Publish an advertisement about your name change or correction in a widely circulated local newspaper. This is usually required to notify the public about the change.

Gazette Notification: After the newspaper publication, you will need to apply for a name change or correction in the Official Gazette of the State Government. You can usually find the application form on the official website of the State Gazette or at the Government Press.

Documentation: Gather all necessary documents such as your birth certificate, educational certificates, and any other relevant documents that support your name change or correction request.

Application: Submit your application, along with the affidavit and supporting documents, to the concerned government department or office where you are employed. This could be your HR or administrative department.

Verification: Your application will be verified by the concerned authorities, and they may request additional documents or information if needed.

Approval: If your application is approved, the name change or correction will be officially recorded in your service records.

Update Documents: After the approval, make sure to update your name in all official records, including your employee records, bank accounts, PAN card, Aadhar card, and any other documents where your name is mentioned.
