Does your legal name include your middle name?
If a document asks you to list your legal name is that you first and last name or does it include middle too ?
Do Middle Names Matter?

In general, it’s probably best to include your middle name if the form asks for full legal name. However, as long as first and last name match up, then there isn’t usually a problem.
