oath ceremony letter name

[phardream 0]

Hi all! I received my oath ceremony letter today however I'm confused if the IO made a mistake on my name change. My name in my birth cert is just one first name. However, in my baptismal cert, I have two first names. Throughout the years I have been using 2 first names. When i applied for all my paperworks here, I used my 2 first names. During my naturalization interview, IO clarified it and told me that we will just go with my single first name in my application then apply for name change to make it officially 2 first names.

my question is: in my oath letter, it is addressed to my single name (birth certificate name). for those who had name changes, did you have your original names in your letter or the changed name already?

Just needed clarifications. Hoping to hear from anyone especially those who had name changes.

Thanks!

Your name change does not take effect until you take your oath at the naturalization ceremony.

Until that time, your legal name is the name you had at the time of your interview. So your current legal name is the name on your birth certificate.

USCIS addresses all letters in your current name, not the name you will get when you become a citizen.

At your oath, you should get your naturalization certificate in the new name that you requested as well as a name change certificate showing the approved name change request.
