Confusion regarding name change

Hi everyone.

The name on my id/passport was different from the one on my educational documents so I got it changed a few years ago. I have travel history on my old passport with my old name. I am confused regarding what exactly I have to show to CIC to prove that my name was changed?

Secondly, since my birth certificate and stamp paper submitted for name change are in Urdu, I will need to get a translation of it if I have to attach those. Does anyone (especially those from Lahore, Pakistan) have experience in this regard? What do I need to upload, the official guidelines are quite vague with regards to translations.

Help in this regard would be appreciated.
