Star magazine reported Friday that Portia de Rossi was planning to change her name to Portia DeGeneres, to reflect the last name of her new wife, Ellen DeGeneres. The report also claimed that the two had ordered stationery with the heading "Mrs. and Mrs. DeGeneres" from Tiffany & Co. to use as thank-you notes for gifts they received at their wedding last month.

Not true, a representative for DeGeneres tells The Advocate. Both reports are apparently false.

The two tied the knot in a small ceremony at their Hollywood hills home on August 19. (Corey Scholibo, The Advocate)
