Name change dual nationality

[GoldenS]

Hi I would like change my name but have read that this could be an issue for dual nationals who don't wish or can't change there name on there other passport. But I have also read that I could change my name every where in the UK but keep my UK passport with my birth name. Is that a good idea? Is there any implications of not changing the name on the passport or does it infact make the whole procedure much easier and more practical?
Thank you

I understand the difficulty in changing the name on the passport and that's why im seeking advice about changing it everywhere except on my passport citizenship certificate so I can basically save everyone and my self the struggle in pronouncing my foreign name at work and when I call someone or someone calls me etc.

Rule is to have the same name on your certificate and your passports, British and foreign
However, in everyday life you can use different versions of your name or indeed a different name as long as it's not done for fraudulent or other criminal purposes. For anything important/vital (Bank/Insurances/important legal documents like above) use the "correct" name. My own full name is not complex but long so I shorten it a bit for convenience.

Yes. Keep on using correct original names for all official purposes in all formal documents. Simply use a nickname for people who struggle, etc.

Have you done it with a deed poll?
