Will name differences in documents affect my court marriage?

I have an issue: in one of my documents, my name is mentioned along with my surname, while in the rest of the documents, only my first name is mentioned. Will this create any problems during a court marriage?

Since your name appears differently in some documents, it might cause minor issues during court marriage. To fix this, you can make a notarized affidavit stating that all variations belong to you. Submit this along with your documents to the marriage registrar, and the marriage can proceed smoothly without legal complications. For further legal assistance contact us on our helpline number.
