I’m from the US. My legal name since birth is not 1 word nor my last name. My first name also includes an é.
My birth certificate has all of these as well as my passport. My drivers license doesn’t have the é.
Truncating my name is how I get mail from people states away who have never lived here. One of them being my dad. He’s never lived in this state so it’s not due to an old address.
That’s also how I commit felonies by opening those letters thinking their for me.
