Aaron Paul and his family have had their name-change petitions approved, meaning the actor is now legally known as Aaron Paul, TMZ reports.

Though Paul has been going by his stage name for most of his career, he was actually born Aaron Sturtevant (Paul is was his middle name).

Meanwhile, his son, who was formerly known as Casper Emerson Paul, will now go by Ryden Caspian Paul, and Paul's wife Lauren will also assume the last name.

The Breaking Bad star began the petition to legally change his name early last month. He and his wife reason that they wanted to change Ryden's full name because they liked it better.

Congrats to the Paul family!
