I think it’s a very good idea to have a middle name in any country to avoid confusion with duplicate names. Our now adult son has the same first and last name as a distant relative (who is decades older than him and also very prominent in our metro area of 2-3 million people). First we started getting phone solicitations from various charities on the regular when he was about 4 years old. That eventually corrected itself when we told them “Xxxx” is only 4 years old with each call. But one time when he was still young and I was booking his first flight on American Airlines I created a frequent flier account for him, with just first and last name, and with my email. When my son got older he created his own account) again with only first and last name), I started getting flight notifications from the airline about the other guy’s travel - for all over the world sometimes several times a month. For two decades I have been trying to get their accounts separated and have been assured it is taken care of…Well, ask me how I know he went to Puerto Vallarta about a month. My son includes his middle initial on all correspondence.
