This query is : Resolved
My son is using only one word name. no surname. birth certificate, x clss, Intermediate, B.Tech, PAN card, Election Card, passport are all issued in one word name, with out a surname.
This use of single word name is deliberate and not a mistake.
Now he is applying for higher studies abroad. now they want a surname every where. Every application is asking for a surname.
Can he take a surname now. can he take a very meaningful word as a surname.

There is no legal hurdle to use surname at later stage though it do not form part of certificates. Maximum a clarification through an affidavit may be given as and when required by any authority.
