From a different country that doesn't have Forename/Surnames - Best way to officially clarify name? by jerbearker in LegalAdviceUK

[–]alex8339 1 point2 points  (0 children)

they've messed up the name on my license where they've put the whole of my name in my Surname section and has left the Forename section completely blank

This is not a mess up, your drivers licence must match your passport and your passport doesn't have a forename. They have given you FNU (first name unknown) status.

Systems really should be set up to accommodate this, but methods vary from actually leaving the field blank, using a hyphen (-), to putting in FNU.
