re: Official Better Call Saul Season 2 Episode 9: "Nailed"

He simply changes his name and pratices law as Saul Goodman. If he converted to Islam he could change his name and practice as Cat Stevens for all it matters. It doesn't garner much significance if people recall him being Jimmy McGill once upon a time.

Yep, it's not a big deal. One of the first things he tells Walter White is: "My real name is McGill."

Of course, he implies he uses a pseudonym, but could a lawyer practice under a pseudonym? I would think he'd have to legally change his name.
