AOS packet name confusion

[bestest 1]

Hi,

I am somewhat confused as to what to put as my middle name and my other names. My name in almost all my government documents (passport, birth certificate, marriage license) is, shall we say "X" and my last name. And NO middle name. However most people that know me refer to me as "Y" without using "X" at all. On my Drivers license it says my name is "X" and my middle name is "Y" but that is the only document, and I think they put it there because I told them to. So I thought I would put my first name as "X" my middle name "N/A" and for other names I would write "Y" since it isn't my middle name on any documents I am sending in. This seems to be a good solution. However, today I went for my medical and I realized at the apt that my immunization records only have the name "Y"(confusing). So they asked me for ID showing my name was "Y" and I showed them my drivers license. They said, in the form, they will put my first name as "X" and my middle name as "Y" like my license says. My question is should I do the same for all the forms I am sending in so everything should be the same. or should I leave middle name as "N/A" and hope that it won't cause trouble that on the medical they have middle name as "Y". I'm confused :-)

First of all is Y your official name at all, or it's just a pet name? since you mentioned that it's not on your BC. Your BC is the standing document to prove who you are, except of course a marriage certificate and other official name changing docs. You just can't use a random name on official documents. There is nothing confusing about your situation, if you are not officially Y, but friends like to call you that you can't use it in important issues.

The complication now is you have Y affixed to the medical, which in essence is not your medical, since you are not really Y...
