So I legally changed my name, letter of recognition came today. I am *insert old name here* no more!
To those who were asking, the 'f' is Fred.
My initials are NFW.

Lets say your name is Robert. Everyone calls you Rob. Your bank card says rob, everything you name says rob, but the legal stuff says Robert. Over time you forget which is which, so you don't know if you used your legal name or assumed name and it gets confusing when for example, government/banks won't accept you saying your name is Rob if they want a Robert, or the other way around. I've never been the long version of my name, and indeed, none of my friends even knew my actual name was the long version.
As for middle name, I never had any connection with it, but now I do. Its a link to my grandfather (no his name was not Fred)
