issue with repeated names in certificate of Naturalization. Please Help

[arjunganeshan]

Hi All, just got me certificate of Naturalization today and was thinking for applying for British Passport. However there is an issue :

Name on Indian Passport :
Given Name - Axxxx Gxxxxxxx
Surname - Blank

Name provided in British Application :
Given Name - Axxxx Gxxxxxxx
Surname - Blank

Name mentioned in Certificate of Naturalization

Full Name - * Axxxx Gxxxxxxx* Axxxx Gxxxxxxx

so when i apply for british passport, will they accept the below:
Given Name - Axxxx Gxxxxxxx
Surname - Blank

or

Given Name - Axxxx
Surname - Gxxxxxxx

The reason for me asking is that the names mentioned in naturalization certificate and my indian passport are different. so will HMPO consider the issue if i write a cover letter explaining the same? or do i need to get the naturalization certificate amended to match the name as per my indian passport. PLEASE HELP!

If the name on your naturalisation certificate is not correct then you need to request a correction.... did they put the name as you specified it in the naturalisation application?

Names need to be uniform, I don't think it would be accepted but I am not entirely sure. Suggest you check what you put on the application and request a new certificate consistent with your Indian passport - if you made a mistake you will need to pay a fee to request a correction, if it is the HO's mistake they will fix it for free (but this process will take some time). You can also consider changing your name via deed poll to * Axxxx Gxxxxxxx* Axxxx Gxxxxxxx and use that on all your UK documents, explaining that the name on your Indian passport is different.
