US Passport App (DS-11) for Baby -- Mother's Maiden Name
Getting around to applying for a passport for our 1 year old. The application clearly says to list the BIRTH names of both parents. And the kid's birth certificate also has the BIRTH names of both parents, as is standard practice.

Apparently wife and I are both supposed to show up in person with our DLs. My wife's DL will have her married name as her last name (her maiden name is her middle name now), so her DL won't match up to the name stated on the application and the birth certificate. How does her DL prove that she's the mother, and will there be a problem?

A million other people must have been in the same situation... am I overthinking this?
