Gatekeepers News reports that Hamilton disclosed this while speaking at the 2022 Dubai Expo.
This was before he begins his fight for a record eighth Formula 1 world championship this weekend at the Bahrain GP.
The British Formula 1 driver said he wants his “mum to continue on with the Hamilton name”.
“I’m really proud of my family’s name, Hamilton… None of you might know that my mum’s name is Larbalestier and I am just about to put that in my name.
“I don’t fully understand the idea that when people get married the woman loses their name.
“I really want my mum to continue on with the Hamilton name.”
His mother Carmen Larbalestier, now Lockhart, separated from his father Anthony Hamilton when he was only two years old.
The 37-year-old mostly grew up with his father and stepmother Linda and has frequently highlighted his family bond in recent years.
Hamilton added, “It would mean the world to my family [to win an eighth title].
Asked when the name change could be complete, Hamilton added: “Hopefully soon, I don’t know if it will be this weekend… but we are working on it.”
