So systems in these countries should just be built without any regard for foreign names?
There isn't really a working excuse for a broken schema.
Just have a blanket 'name' field.
The name someone wants to be called and their legal name isn't necessarily the same, either. If you're writing normal software, you shouldn't really care about these legal provisions. I guess you'd want a 'Billing Name' too in most cases.

I never said anything about "should" and I think this conflation of "what this person knows the world is" with "what this person thinks the world should be" is detrimental to discourse. I've seen it in multiple places, especially online, and it leads to arguments where both people actually agree on what should be, but one of them is talking about what is and the other person can't or won't tell the difference between the two.
