For me the problem is a bit different. My parents named me with two 'given names' and didn't continue with the family surname. My parents have 'Nandy Majumdar' as their surname but my name is 'Shabnam Surita' and my brother is named 'Swapnil Saikat' and we have our names like these in our birth certificates and everywhere. So a lot of people assume that 'Surita' is my surname and try to convince me for it. My passport has a blank for surname, and Shabnam Surita both are placed in the 'Given/First Name' section. I think all countries should try and acknowledge various cultural possibilities of names and let people have their freedom with it. I mean if I want my child to have just one name and be legally allowed to register a child with that at birth, it should be legally acceptable everywhere without having to add a '-' or + to it for no reason whatsoever.

[@BharatinGermany]

+Shabnam Surita Woah. Your case is extreme. :O You are actually right. It should be allowed. Every time I used to tell them about it, they would even sometimes go as far as saying that it's not possible and would doubt the authenticity of the passport. XD I used to discuss with Alina about the same thing and she would never agree. It sounds weird to just about everybody. :D

[@shabnamsurita]

I know how it feels.. and add to my complexity, my old passport had my name wrongly written in reverse as 'Surita Shabnam' :/ I had the time of my life getting a new passport!

Due to this, she is not able to apply for driving license, though she had passed her written test. When we apply for passport, we should make sure that first and last names are entered properly to avoid unnecessary problems when the person goes abroad for studies.

Heyy I'm in final year (7th sem) of mechanical engineering in Gujarat Technical University (GTU). I'm D2D (Diploma to degree) student. As I'm a d2d student i directly got admission in 2nd year of my bachelor degree program. I recently get to know that my diploma is may be not valid in Germany. Now do i have to study one more year in india to complete my study as 4 year program ? because i did not studied 1st year as i got admission directly in 2nd year. Please help me brother I'm in a huge confusion.

[@utkarshcervantes9016]

I never had any major trouble but I wonder if now (at 31)I should bother adding a last name (as Dubai recently banned entry for single name passports) and if it would be a problem to have no last name in documents but have a new passport with a last name. (What is worse) Time for immigration authorities to learn the cultural diversities and possibilities of 8 billion people! High time!
