  • I never hated having a middle name until japan. The number of places that desperately need all of your entire name as written on your passport is ridiculous. It’s like “ok you got me, I was absolutely attempting to commit bank fraud because it’s highly likely that the one person named Cornelius Tiberius Wallace trying to get a new bank book for the account I’ve had for 30 years could potentially have a doppelganger named simply Cornelius Wallace living in the same town of 10,000 people. If only there were some other way to identify someone besides their middle name. What’s that? You’ve never had a problem differentiating between the endless parade of Taro Satos that walk through your door? I’m shocked I tell you.”

    I’m just surprised they let you leave anything off your name, but I guess in your case they see Japanese name plus a bunch of other fake garbage you use to fool people when existing in gaikokuland, so of course you only need to put your true name on forms.
