Response

In India, we are used to having names with initials, instead of using Full Name. When applying for a passport, well those dang travel agents mess up the things, donÕt they? Most of us unaware of potential problems that one can run into while applying for GRE Exam, TOEFL, F1 Visa, SSN, Driving License, etc.
Possible Name CombinationÕs
Certificates Ð Arun MV
Birth Certificate Ð MV Arun
College Marksheets Ð MV Arun
Documents Ð Arun V (or MXXX Arun VXXX)
You have to remember this Ð Name mismatch between a passport and certificates, not a major problem at all. ThatÕs something that can be will fix. DonÕt worry about changing names in your certificates and documents.
Names in Passport
Having cleared one problem above, letÕs talk about the nameÕs in the passport. I can think of possible variations
Combination 1:
Given Name Ð Arun
Middle Name Ð MXXX
Surname Ð VXXX
Combination 2:
Given Name Ð Arun MXXX
Middle Name Ð Empty
Surname Ð VXXX
Combination 3:
Given Name Ð Arun M V
Middle Name Ð Empty
Surname Ð Empty
Of all the above 3 possibilities, the last one is the most problematic. As long as you have a Surname in your passport, you will not have MAJOR problems. If there is no surname in your passport, stop right here and get your name changes in your passport first before going forward with any application or study abroad process.
