reconversion is simple,he is already a Hindu by having been born in this country. contact any priest who will do a Shuddi ceremony with chanting thythareeya upanishad, denoting acceptance of Hindu faith. Proudly take a Hindu name of your liking. A simple advt in papers and an affidavit before a Notary Public is sufficient to complete the legal formality. The advt would be like this “I ….s/o Shri…., herby declare that I have converted to Hindu faith and adopted the name……..Henceforth I shall be known by this name.
Signed befor Notary Public.
In Bangalore all Notary Public will do this for a nominal fee.
Welcome to Hinduism, your ancestral faith.

Your friend has  to change his religion before undergoing the process of changing of  name. For that he can follow the process mentioned in the above given answer  but the change of religion has to be notified, so that he can change it in all his legal documents etc. After changing religion as per the customs, it need to be notified in Government Gazette also.
