Heidi Finds Klum Passé

Project Runway host petitions to legally change last name to Samuel (as in Seal Samuel)

One day your name is in, the next day it's out. 

More than four years after they tied the knot and on the eve of the birth of their third child together, Heidi Klum has filed paperwork to legally take Seal's last name as her own.

Now, we know what you're thinking...

Seal has a last name?!

Yes, it's Samuel, as in Seal Henry Olusegun Olumide Adelo Samuel, and Heidi wants in on it, probably figuring it won't affect the international superstardom she's acquired under the surname Klum.

Per court documents, she'll know by Nov. 20 if her petition has been approved—and we don't see any reason why it shouldn't be.

Makes perfect sense&#8212;not only is it a romantic, traditional gesture, but it'll be far easier for her children's teachers to know who the kids belong to now
