"Other Names Used" Middle Name

[FutureMrsDonald 14]

I have a question regarding the "Other names used" section. My fiance is from Nigeria and has two middles names (one is an African middle name the other is his middle name he uses on all current legal documents). They are not used together. He used to use his African middle name on some legal documents a long time ago as they are used interchangeably. If I put his African middle name in the "Other Names Used" will that require proof of a legal name change or is that only for last names? (I see that as a requirement under the I129F instructions) His original age declaration has his African middle name but his new affadavit of age declaration has his current legal middle name that is on his passport and everything else. He has no evidence of a legal name change, as they are used interchangeably there. Can anyone help?

You can put it or not put it, it doesn’t matter. You do not need proof of legal name change to put another name there. I put my “American name” there. For example, my real name could be Xi Jinping but I go by “David”, that’s how my co-workers know me because no one can say my real name, so I put “David” there.

 

P.S: Xi Jinping of course is not my real name, it’s the Chinese President’s

Okay. I was confused because it says any name changes needs proof under the instructions so I wasnt sure if that just refers to Last names...?
