When completing your birth certificate registration do you put your common law name (i.e. how you wish to be known) in the box at the end ‘Name of Individual Submitting Information’? My legal fiction is Annemarie McCall and I wish my common law name to be :nuin :mccall
This is the only thing stopping me from completing mine (and I think I have done it wrong), mother, father and husband. Thank you for guidance.

Examples: I believe all these are acceptible ways of entering

Name of submitting individual could be: e.g. Joe Bloggs, Joe-Philip Bloggs, etc
Legal fiction: e.g. MR JOSPEH PHILIP BLOGGS
Common law name: :joe-philip :bloggs or Joe-Philip of the family (clan or tribe) Bloggs
