Is it just a Hollywood thing? What are the rules?

If you look up movies starring Ellen Page they changed her name to Elliott in listings....."Juno starring Eliot Page about a teen girl who chooses adoption over aborting her baby."
Did they change all the Olympic medals Bruce Jenner won to Caitlyn Jenner?
When someone transitions is the person before the transition non existent?

The term 'dead naming' would imply that yes, that previous identity is erased - but to make it retrospective is a bit weird - Page comes across to me as emotionally unstable - it will be interesting to see how it all turns out in the future.
